Error: device-mapper: create ioctl on veracrypt1 failed: Device or resource busy

Hi,

I am using a docker to test Veracrypt.
This is an Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and i use the last version of veracrypt in command line.
I create an encrypt volume and it seems to be ok:

Done: 100.000%  Speed: 4.8 MiB/s  Left: 0 s

The VeraCrypt volume has been successfully created.

But when I want to mount it have this message error:

Error: device-mapper: create ioctl on veracrypt1  failed: Device or resource busy
Command failed

Someone can help me?

Thanks

Hi @didier. I was looking for a solution for a similar problem in my raspberry pi, and it seems be because the kernel doesn't support the natively encryption of your volume. Mouting with

-m=nokernelcrypto

fixed my error. I hope it resolves for you too.

P.D. The access with that option slows it down quite a lot.
