MD5 Length Exception - geekman7473 - 03-27-2013
So I am relatively new to hash cracking however I have a list of several hundred thousand md5 hashes that are formatted as so: 597c679a43b24747cb717f5ba204ca1b (Not a real hash, I fabricated this for example sake) and are all 32 characters in length. However whenever I attempt to run Hashcat with These settings it throws a "line length exception" on all of my hashes. What am i doing wrong?

run it from command line and see if it still errors.
RE: MD5 Length Exception - epixoip - 03-27-2013
check for trailing whitespace in your hash list as well

Oddly enough this seemed to of resolved itself! After waiting for a bunch of skipping line exceptions to go past the cracking began and completed successfully! (After skipping 3,000 hashes...) Thank you for the help gentleman!
EDIT: After further manual inspection, some of the hashes in my list were missing characters!
