• Please be aware: Kaspersky Anti-Virus has been deprecated
    With the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.64, "Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Servers" will be automatically removed from the servers it is installed on. We recommend that you migrate to Sophos Anti-Virus for Servers.
  • The Horde webmail has been deprecated. Its complete removal is scheduled for April 2025. For details and recommended actions, see the Feature and Deprecation Plan.
  • We’re working on enhancing the Monitoring feature in Plesk, and we could really use your expertise! If you’re open to sharing your experiences with server and website monitoring or providing feedback, we’d love to have a one-hour online meeting with you.

Issue Password validation is not working correctly

Boindil

New Pleskian
The password validation (e.g. for mail passwords) says:

Ihr Passwort ist nicht komplex genug. Gemäß der Serverrichtlinie ist die Mindeststärke für Passwörter Sicher. Starke Passwörter müssen mindestens folgende Anforderungen erfüllen: acht Zeichen, ein Groß- oder Kleinbuchstabe, drei Ziffern und ein Sonderzeichen (!, @, #, $, %, ^, &, *, ?, _, ~) oder eine Ziffer und zwei Sonderzeichen.

In my specific case I had 9 characters, one uppercase, two digits and two special characters. This should be enough.

I guess the reason might be, that the special character I chose is not part of the given chars (what???). You should add more special characters to your checks - they are valid anyways - such as "+", "-", etc.
 
I can only say that you are right. We are aware of this problem, and I have updated it for developers with your case.
Now I can advise you to reduce the Minimum password strength.

By the way, the passwords the generator creates are still only 8 characters long. "Fnk5l10_" is not what I consider "Strong" anymore. "02oWvYREoTyCGYoSj" is a lot stronger, but considered "Medium" by plesk.
