HALP cracking a password

Hey guys just as a background – Im in school getting my bachelors degree in cybersecurity and for my Pentest class..I need to exploit a VM we are using (metasploitable).

I am stuck. I was able to get into the target machine using telnet (for this project, I chose to exploit telnet) and I explored around and found the file that I needed to find. Inside the file is just a hash.

I then tried cracking the hash using JTR but all it says is “No password hashes loaded” …. I have been at it for hours and looking around online and tried different approaches and nothing.

Any idea what I could do/try or am I doing something wrong? I’m a complete noob to the field so i’d really appreciate some guidance. Thanks.
