I have this issue of "open: Permission denied Error locking counter" when trying to mount my home folder from a live sesion. I used the guide on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory.

This looks awfully like bug #527666 but it claims to be fixed while I am still experiencing this issue. It is possible to mount the partitions with mount -a, and the system continues to boot after maintenance shell is exited. However ~/Private ecryptfs becomes unavailable due to: rtg@buzz:~$ ecryptfs-mount-private Enter your login passphrase: Inserted auth tok with sig [ae9ed25cb6615b05] into the user session keyring open: Permission denied Error locking counter The problem with ecryptfs happens every time some partition fails to mount and it is mounted manually. I am adding the info about ~/Private problem in order to show that mount -a is not a proper workaround for mountall failure.
