damn. salt-value exception could happen in several situations. It seems there is either something wrong with your hash or the hashcat parser for some strange reason (mistakenly?) rejects it.
If you can please share the hash in a private message (not here, because posting hashes is not allowed within the forum). I might be able to help to see where exactly it got rejected and what the reason for this rejection was.
Ideally, the parser should have more and different error messages such that it is easier to understand which "field" or condition is responsible for this behaviour within the parser.
