Install error: account password too short...

Postby UncleScrooge » Tue Dec 09, 2008 3:19 pm

Just downloaded PT3 trial version and istalled. Upon first launching the prog tries to install Postgrel. Everything seems to work fine until I got a popup win with this error:

Unable to create account: password too short or not complex enough.

rerun trying to change the default passwords with longer (16 chars) and mindtwisting passwords with no help: same message again.

After the message the Postgrel installation "rolls back" and I suppose it leaves the system clean.

any hint?

When prompted in the installation to enter a password, ensure that your password is at least 10 characters long, with one capital letter, one lowercase letter, one number and one symbol. Once your password meets these requirements, it will be accepted. Alternately, there should be a button to let PostgreSQL create the password for you, and you should feel free to let it do so.
