Hi Everybody,
I tried to register my account on Pavlovia, but it wont let me, apparently due to an error with password restrictions? This is odd, as I certainly fulfill all the requirements provided. Would it be possible to investigate this issue or register my account remotely?
Hope you have a good rest of the week,
Tom
Are you using your institution email address?
Please could you show a screenshot of the error?
Yes, I am. Its from the german sports university cologne, or dshs for short.
Here is one screenshot before:
Here is it with the Error Message:
Obviously, I checked my pw three times that it is fulfilling the requirements, so I am a bit confused on what may went wrong.
Hope that helps!
I’ve notified the team. Sometimes, in cases like this, I’m successful if I try a different browser.
I see. I try a different Browser and report whether it works or not. Thank you so much already for looking into it.
On a sidenote, which special characters are suited for the pw? Maybe one of those dont work?
It might be that you are going beyond the standard set of special characters. Try using only special characters in this list.
!"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@^_`{|}~
(list from Password Special Characters | OWASP Foundation)
Yep that seemed to be the problem.
It seemed as though the characters . : and # werent recognized. With another character from that list, it seemed to work!
Thank you so much for the help!
