If a Plesk admin wants to install Wordpress, the installation always fails.


1. Select Server Management -> Tools & Settings -> Security -> Security Policy
2. Select (*) Very strong
3. Confirm with OK
4. Select Hosting Services -> Domains
2. Select Domain
3. Select Button Install Apps
4. Select Wordpress in All Available Applications
5. Select Install
6. Error message is shown!
Error: Installation of WordPress at http://lyl-canbys.de/blog failed. Your password is not complex enough. According to the server policy, the minimal password strength is Very strong. To improve the password strength, use numbers, upper and lower-case characters, and special characters like !,@,#,$,%,^,&,*,?,_,~

But the password was complex enough. with 20 numbers+charcters+special chars!

I i lower Plesks Security Policy to (*) Strong, the Wordpress installation works.
But lowering Security with password length 8 is not desireable.

Plesk 12.0.18 Update #24
Linux Debian 7.7

I think this is a bug in Plesk.
