There appears to be a bug in the Security Editor. If I uncheck “Complex passwords” under Global Preferences when I go to add a new user I get an error if the user’s password does not conform to the criteria for a complex password.

Have you checked your MicroFour.StrataFrame.Security reference version?

Thanks for testing this Ivan.  it is very weird. The assembly looks OK, I tested in my dev with 1.7.3 and at the customer with previous version and they both give the broken rule for complex password.  I have not hacked any table, so what else could be causing this kind of weirdness?

Found the problem.  The SFSPreferences table have 2 records where it should be only one, the code in the Security Editor may be expecting to have only one record in this table and once changing the values, it was saved, but was using the invalid record to validate the user maintenance form.

Once I removed the 1st record, then it worked as expected.  See attached image. 

Now to figure out how I end up with duplicate records

Thanks Ivan!

Guess it could happen if you copied the SFS tables to the production database instead of deploying them with the DDT, maybe.

You are welcome, Edhy!

Glad you got it working.

Nope I use the DDT for all deployments but obviously something when south and I don't have the time to find a way to duplicate it now so I just removed the offended record from my database and the customer's.

Yep, that will do it...
