Re: ppolicy 'Constraint violation' with no additional info

Hi all,

I'm using ppolicy for some time now but sometimes when a user changes its password we get a 'Constraint violation' error without any additional info like 'Password is too young to change' or 'Password is in history of old passwords'. So I'm not sure where it fails.

Does anybody have some idea on which case(s) this could happen ?

This could happen if the password is too short, or if your are using a password checker, or if you send the password in SSHA and the pwdCheckQuality is set to 2.

Clément.
