    Hi there,
    I can't mount my veracrypt volume anymore after my USB enclosure recovered from sleeping mode. I don't know if it can be related but previously, I was using it in a single drive enclosure and I moved to a 5 drives enclosure with 3 disks in it. All the disks are veracrypt volumes and were mounted separately. Each of these have now the same mount issue.

    • Ubuntu 24.04.2
    • VeraCrypt 1.24-Update7
    • ext4 volumes

    Error:

    $ veracrypt -t -k "" --protect-hidden=no --pim 0 /dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_WDxxxxx /media/w/
    Error: mount: /media/w: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mapper/veracrypt1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error.
    dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call.

    Let me know if I can give you more info.

    Ok, it was not veracrypt fault but seems like the enclosure had a power failure issue. fsck fixed it.
