I have a file named test.zip, it's password is like "Cst.******", where * is 0-9,a-z,A-Z
My device is Tesla V100-32GB，my OS is Ubuntu 20.04LTS
First, I use

Code:

zip2john test.zip > temp.txt

, I got things like: 

Code:

test.zip/test.pdf:$pkzip2$1*2*2*0*1a68...(many characters)...6030bc*$/pkzip2$:test.pdf:test.zip

Then, I store the

Code:

1*2*2*0*1a68...(many characters)...6030bc*

into a file named hash.txt
Then I use hashcat by command:

Code:

(base) ubuntu@VM-0-13-ubuntu:~/hashcat-6.2.6$ ./hashcat.bin -a 3 -m 17225 hash.txt Cst. -1 ?l?u?d -1 ?l?u?d -1 ?l?u?d -1 ?l?u?d -1 ?l?u?d -1 ?l?u?d

I think maybe test.zip file is not PKZIP (Mixed Multi-File), so I tried -m 17220, 17200, 17225, 17230, 17210, 20500, 20510, 23001, 23002, 23003, 13600

But all of them doesn't work.

What can I do to fix it?

there are two things

first please store the hash.txt as file without this stupid BOM-Marker, plain ascii or utf-8 will be your friend 

second, you removed the signature $pkzip2$ from the hash, this signature is needed so your hash.txt should look like this

$pkzip2$1*2*2*0*1a68...(many characters)...6030bc*$/pkzip2$

Thank you a lot, now I restored this hash.txt with UTF-8 encoding, and added $pkzip2$ at the begin and end.

However, now new error occurs when I use -m 17200/17210/17220/17225:

Code:

Hashfile 'txts/hash.txt' on line 1 ($pkzip...2f498267e8c8287d6030bc*$/pkzip2$): Token length exception

* Token length exception: 1/1 hashes
  This error happens if the wrong hash type is specified, if the hashes are
  malformed, or if input is otherwise not as expected (for example, if the
  --username option is used but no username is present)

No hashes loaded.

and when I use -m 17230, the error info is:

Code:

when you take a look at https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=example_hashes you will see, that the only modes which complies with  $pkzip2$1$ are 17200 and 17210

when both modes run into a "Token length exception" then your hash is to long and you have to try john the ripper for cracking
