Unable to login using Data Loader CLI v45.0.0 (patched for null pointer exception)

I recently started a new job and I have been trying to get the Data Loader CLI working. I have used it many times before.

I have generated a key and encrypted password several times. However I still get an error when I try to login:

 [LoginFault [ApiFault  exceptionCode='INVALID_LOGIN'
 exceptionMessage='Invalid username, password, security token; or user locked out.'
 extendedErrorDetails='{[0]}']

I know that I am hitting the correct endpoint because I can see the attempt in the login history:

Login Type    Status            Browser            Platform Application
Other Apex API    Invalid Password    Java (Salesforce.com)    Unknown    DataLoaderPartnerBatch/

I have tried adding my security token to my password but still no joy.

So it looks like something is going wrong with encrypting/decrypting my password.


Any ideas?
