Unable to crack the known Luks password
#1
I currently am trying to crack an unknown password and I have been doing this since last August and I decided to do a test and it turns that there is a problem and I would like to know what the issue is before I continue wasting my time.  

Here is my test:

Hashfile 'Luks_Partition_500gb.dd': Disabled LUKS key detected

No hashes loaded.


I padded it and the password was not found in the dictionary that I KNOW is this one since it was a TEST

hashcat -m 14600 -a 0 paddedLuks_Partition_500gb.dd Dictionary.txt -o luks_password.txt

Session..........: hashcat

I then decided to create an entirely new test and got the same results
The problem is that I have a real issue where I want to crack the password and It may not work because of this....


What is the issue?
