John the ripper(kali linux) cant load hashes

Question

I am trying to crack a md5 hash using a word list with john the ripper i used the following command:

john --format=raw-md5 --wordlist=/usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt.gz /root/md5.txt

And i always get the following error:

**Using default input encoding: UTF-8**

**"No password hashes loaded (see FAQ)"**

The word list I'm using is rockyou.txt and the md5 hash is this

8AFA847F50A716E64932D995C8E7435A
5F4DCC3B5AA765D61D8327DEB882CF99

EDIT: I used small letters instead of capital letters for the hashes and i got this error

Answer 1

Your wordlist is in compressed .gz format.

--wordlist=/usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt.gz

Uncompress it first.

--wordlist=/usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt

I copied your hash to my box.

kali@kali:$ cat hash.txt

Check the supported format

kali@kali:$ john --list=formats | tr , '\n' | grep -i md5
 md5crypt
 md5crypt-long
 asa-md5
 dmd5
 krb5pa-md5
 net-md5
 md5ns
 PBKDF2-HMAC-MD5
 pix-md5
 Raw-MD5
 Raw-MD5u
 SunMD5
tcp-md5
 HMAC-MD5
kali@kali:$ 

Try again ... voilà

kali@kali:$ john --show --format=Raw-MD5 hash.txt 

<Cracked password removed>

5 password hashes cracked, 0 left
