The same issue also arrises when you add a new disk to your system and
wish to encrypt it. The disks utility offers you the encryption option,
but then returns the none obvious error as stated before, instead of
telling you that cryptsetup is not installed.

Title:
  "cryptsetup" should be included and installed by default in ubuntu
  14.04

Status in “cryptsetup” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “gnome-disk-utility” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After upgrade from ubuntu 13.10 to 14.04 lts, I am unable to ulock my
  luks device. It gives the following error message:

  Error unlocking /dev/sda6: Error spawning command-line `cryptsetup
  luksOpen "/dev/sda6" "luks-9082ff43-d991-4bf1-8bb6-ef8452e3e11a" ':
  Failed to execute child process "cryptsetup" (No such file or
  directory) (g-exec-error-quark, 8)

  Then I noticed that the package "cryptsetup" was not installed in my
  system.

  "cryptsetup" should be included and installed as default in ubuntu
  14.04 lts, as it was in the previous releases.
