Ok, I finally found the problem: Whenever a password has a length which can
be divided by three (like 6 or 9), the last two characters are completely
ignored. This problem will be fixed in version 2.3.5. Is has to be noted
that all existing passwords with the mentioned length have to be re-entered
after the upgrade from 2.3.4 to 2.3.5. Since one cannot log in with the old
password on those cases, a "Forgot password?" links has been added to the
login screen, which can be used to create a new password and send it to the
registered email address. |
