pyhoca-cli stopped working for me, ValueError: CTR mode needs counter parameter, not IV

17 Feb 2017


      pyhoca-cli stopped working for me. I expected it to ask me for password,
but instead it raises an exception.
I don't know what happened, because this works all the time. And I think
I didn't change anything.
The error message is: "ValueError: CTR mode needs counter parameter, not IV"
Used command:
pyhoca-cli --server xxxxxxx -u xxxxxx -R
xxxx-xx-xxxxxxxxxx_xxxxxxxx-session_xxxx
The output:
pyhoca-cli[14890] NOTICE: preparing requested X2Go session
