Aircraft
We had a normal landing; roll out and exited the runway uneventfully. Taxiing to [ramp]; we got an ECAM ATS off. ECAM directed us to reset. We attempted one reset and it would not reset. Moments later we taxied and parked uneventfully. Upon shut down and completion of checklist I filled out the logbook for the ATS failure. After exiting Aircraft I found the mechanic doing his walk around and informed him of the ATS write up along with an enroute write up of the First Officer's SGU failure. This is when he told me he found something else and led us to the number 2 engine reverser. The reverser was only partially stowed and the reverser cowling was distorted and wrinkled. I was shocked and the mechanic indicated to me that he has seen it before but was rare. The mechanic went straight to the logbook to enter what he had found. Out of curiosity I went back to the cockpit to look and see if the amber reverser not stowed on num 2 was illuminated and sure enough it was. Not sure why we did not get a reverser not stowed ECAM. Maybe because of the ATS failure ECAM?
A300 Captain reported that a reverser did not properly stow after landing; resulting in cowl damage and an ECAM warning.
