[SOLVED] fstab mounting issue - noexec though passing exec

I am trying to mount my data/program partition with exec option but I can not execute any of the programs though they have the correct permissions. Using luks encryption should not have any influend on mounting options within fstab, right?
_fstab_:

/dev/mapper/luks_data /media/data ext4 rw,exec,user,auto 0 1

_crapttab_:

luks_data     /dev/[devicenode]        ASK

I guess I am missing something obvious :>

Remountung via

mount -o remount,exec /media/data

fixes this temporarily to the next reboot.

Write user,exec instead of exec,user. (source : man mount, line 622)

Ouch... I never read the fstab to that detail, thanks for pointing out. SOLVED
