Error'd: 12345

We have for you this week a full set of the Error'd we most love to hate: the perverse password policy.

An anonymous reader drops this, with little to say except to note "Speciaal passwords". Evidently they supplied a password which satisfied each of the five green critera, but still it was rejected.It would be nice to know where this offense originated,

Intrepid Michael R. explains"note: Handy is the German term for mobile phone (UK)or cell phone (US)."

Sacha R. observes a secret policy at play, saying"Oracle try to do the right thing by showing youthe password policy requirements when you manually reset a passwordin their Fusion applications. It's just a pity that itdoesn't show you the *correct* password policy requirements."

"Faith, here's an equivocator," reportsMatthew S."Pick one, Staples!" I bet it's the ampersand that offends.

"At least letters or numbers?" questions a final anon. "Just a little head scratching moment. After removing all specialcharacters from the password I was able to register." This lookslike partly a translation wtf and partly a software design wtf.
