BIO call failed for certain length of string encryption/decryptio n

Title: Message

Hi, I have the following code to do encryption and decryption (blowfish). But I have problem of encrypting/decrypting the string with certain length in my testing. Every thing seems working fine for the string length less than 48. if the length is greater than or equal to 48 and less than 56, the decryption of the encrypted string will return error and some times core dumps. it works for length equal to 56, not working for > 56 and working again for some value > 56. It seems weird to me. Does any body know what's wrong?
