Keep getting the following error on trying to decrypt a db:

c:\Python27>decrypt.py encrypted.db password123 out.db

I am having the same problem.

I just decrypted the database using SqliteStudio, it was really easy

I had the same error and after some troubleshooting, I realized it was due to an incorrect password. Once I corrected the password, everything worked fine. Make sure to double-check your password!
