kCCDecodeError while decrypting the string in 3des

Hi,
i am encrypting the data using the pkcs7 padding, if i encrypt the string , length = multipla of 8, then it is working fine. If i ssend the string whose length is not multiple of 8, then it is encrypting the data,but while decrypting it is showing error as kCCDecodeError. Please can any one what is the problem my code is same for encryption and decryption as below:


- (NSData *)doCipher: (NSData *)plainText key: (NSData *)aSymmetricKey
context: (CCOperation)encryptOrDecrypt padding: (CCOptions *)pkcs7 {
CCCryptorStatus ccStatus = kCCSuccess;
// Symmetric crypto reference.
CCCryptorRef thisEncipher = NULL;
// Cipher Text container.
NSData * cipherOrPlainText = nil;
// Pointer to output buffer.
uint8_t * bufferPtr = NULL;
// Total size of the buffer.
size_t bufferPtrSize = 0;
// Remaining bytes to be performed on.
size_t remainingBytes = 0;
// Number of bytes moved to buffer.
size_t movedBytes = 0;
// Length of plainText buffer.
size_t plainTextBufferSize = 0;
// Placeholder for total written.
size_t totalBytesWritten = 0;
// A friendly helper pointer.
uint8_t * ptr;

// Initialization vector; dummy in this case 0's.
uint8_t iv[kChosenCipherBlockSize];//block size is 8
memset((void *) iv, 0x0, (size_t) sizeof(iv));
