Librecrypt CLI Windows Admin Error #53

Closed gill984 closed 8 years ago

gill984 commented 8 years ago

Currently I am attempting to use the Librecrypt CLI to send a command to mount some LUKS partitions via a script. The command I am sending is: "LibreCrypt.exe /mount /volume .\PhysicalDrive1\Partition1 /linux /password password"

Doing this brings up an error message that I need to be an administrator to run this command, even though I already am one.

I know I am running as an admin because I start CMD as an administrator (right click, run as administrator). I've also done some other simple tests to make sure I am an admin. I can open the Librecrypt GUI as an admin to open my partition with no errors, but the CLI complains that I need to be an administrator. I can actually run some commands using the CLI, for example I believe I ran the "/count" command just fine.

Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

I can confirm this is a bug. It's fixed in the next release of LC. You'll have to give the device in the form: \Device\Harddisk1\Partition1 and use the /silent switch to avoid a dialog showing.

Thank you very much!

Is this fixed in any of the currently available versions of LibreCrypt? Can I find the commit for this fix anywhere?

Thanks again!

No, it will be in the next release of LC. I'm going to put some logging in that, so maybe wait for the one after that.
