Hello, I'm French so I use a translator!
I started using hashcat, I wanted to test into crack a series of numbers, but I always find this error is in the picture!
This is the hash : 9ojABM3KScnl40bja60+p7asfJz5A8bmY4DOblHxCe8=

these are not exactly SHA1 hashes but base64(hex(sha1($pass))) ones. You need to base64-decode the hashes before you can crack them.

I believe that's correct. Try writing that into a file, then give hashcat the path to the file to read instead of passing the hash on the command line.

You have to convert it to HEX, not to binary. For example, go to this site:
http://x00.co/~tools/ and choose "Base64 decode to hex". With your hash, it will result an 64 byte string, which is usually SHA256 not SHA1.
