Hash 'hashes': Token length exception No hashes loaded.

[emersonivo]

Hi all,

I am a newbie/self-learning on security field and I was playing with hashcat to learn when I got stuck (on my first exercice )

I created a file with a single line having the below hash.
I toke care to create using sublime_text, saving with encode UTF-8, checking for spaces or special characters (I removed the ones below from md5sum command output), but nothing helped to solve this.


$ echo "password" | md5sum > myhash
286755fad04869ca523320acce0dc6a4  -

$ cat myhash
286755fad04869ca523320acce0dc6a4(space and dash removed)

$ ./hashcat64.bin -m 0 hashes myhash
hashcat (v5.1.0) starting...
