Re: [Bug 259631] Re: Cannot open Private directory after a reboot
Rob,
Might your problem be related to Bug #290445, having any strange
characters in your passphrase? Please don't reveal your passphrase,
but there is a known bug (with a fix coming)...

Cannot open Private directory after a reboot

Bug description:
Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils
I created an encrypted private directory following the instructions here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EncryptedPrivateDirectory
Everything worked as it should until I rebooted. When I try to mount my private directory I get the following message:
jimk@intrepid:~$ mount.ecryptfs_private
keyctl_search: Required key not available
When I go to create a key, I get the following message:
jimk@intrepid:~$ ecryptfs-setup-private
ERROR: wrapped-passphrase file already exists, use --force to overwrite.
I can create a new passphrase if I use the force option, but I shouldn't have to do this everytime I reboot
