Password Change Dialog Problems.

Tim Dol — Wed, 19 Sep 2007 07:59:59 GMT

I am experiencing a few issues with the password change dialog. I originally discovered a problem in 1.5 so I thought I would test in 1.6, but while testing I discovered another issue.

I have my 'unique passwords before reuse' setting set to 2. I created a user and forced password change. On the password change dialog I entered the original password and then entered a new password in the new password and confirm new password text boxes. Changed okay. I then forced another password change. This time I tried using the original password. I then received the message indicating the reuse rule, as expected. I then tried to change the password to another value. This time I receive the message 'The New password cannot be confirmed, please try again. It doesn't seem to matter what password I use, I cannot change it. I even clicked cancel and reentered the values and still couldn't enter a new password. (One other problem is you cannot exit out of this form)

I then did the same test on version 1.6. When I tried reusing the original password, I didn't receive the 'reuse' message, nothing happened. However this time I could change the password.

I can't give you an exact date as of yet. We have a list of things that we want to get into this update. Once we have a fix for this I will let you know and we could just let you have those assemblies.

Perfect... Do you have an release date for 1.6.2 so I can inform my customers or would it be possible to patch 1.6.1. I don't mind modifying the source code on my end if it's something minor.

Let me know.

Thanks,

Tim

Tim,

We have reproduced this and the fix will be in 1.6.2. :)

I upgraded our solution to 1.61 and wanted to let you know I still have the issue. The 'reuse' message is not appearing when I enter a password that had been previously used within the constraint settings, instead nothing happens on the screen to indicate a problem. I can proceed if I change the password to another value but nothing tells the user a problem exists. (The broken rule is not displayed), plus the user cannot exit this screen.

Thanks

Tim
