Correct password in dictionary(wordlist) but aircrack can't find it

I was trying the wpa cracking using aircrack-ng and the problem is the wordlist (dictionary) I was using had the right password (I know that because it's my network) so what did I do wrong I put the right bbsid and the file that had the wpa handshake so what should I do ??

your post contains no usable information (just a "something went wrong" message). The problem is in line 43.

I used this command aircrack-ng -w tes.txt -b F8:9A:78:82:87

E nhand-01.cap and after I executed it it started looking in the file and reading the passwords in it and the real password was in the file but it still said "KEY NOT FOUND" so what is the problem and if you need other information ask me for it

Since you've said you're doing a course, questions like this should be directed to your course tutor.
