Difficulties with Snow Leopard EncFS 1.7.4 installer

alexwoolfson

Hello,

I'm trying BoxCryptor out and it's important that I'm able to also access my files on my Mac. I downloaded the latest Snow Leopard version of your EncFS Installer and I followed the instructions on your blogpost but I'm encountering this error:

encfs_askpass(270,0x7fff703e3cc0) malloc: reference count underflow for 0x20003dda0, break on auto_refcount_underflow_error to debug.
/Library/Filesystems/fusefs.fs/Support/fusefs.kext failed to load - (libkern/kext) link error; check the system/kernel logs for errors or try kextutil(8).
the MacFUSE file system is not available (71)

This is what was in my kernel log:

'Sep 21 21:13:40 WolfBook kernel[0]: kxld[com.google.filesystems.fusefs]: The following symbols are unresolved for this kext:

Restarting doesn't seem to help. Uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't seem to help. I'm running OS X 10.6.8.

Any idea what's going on and how I can get this to work?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

P.S. I wanted to ask this question in the comments of the post itself but I got this error there:

404. That’s an error.
The requested URL /p/tunnelblick/).%3Cbr was not found on this server. That’s all we know.

Hi,

don't know if this will help you - but personally I am using encfs compiled from macports (www.macports.org). It uses the more modern fuse4x and works absolutely flawlessly for me; some compilation involved - seriously easy though.

Which version of MacFUSE do you have installed? (See the value "CFBundleVersion" in the file /Library/Filesystems/fusefs.fs/Contents/version.plist)

When you uninstalled, have you also uninstalled MacFUSE? See the parts "Q 2.3 How can I uninstall MacFUSE?" (and also "Deprecated Installation Information" if you don't have the preference pane installed) in the MacFUSE FAQ (http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/wiki/FAQ).
