Welcome to my homepage

Summary
Just another error from the TimeTracker Web Site Starter Kit!

.NET Classes used :

I just deployed the Time Tracker Starter kit. It took 30 seconds for me to deply the kit! Thanks to AspSpider team.

I launched the starter kit and it prompted me to login. I decided to create a login account, with a user name 'test' and password 'test'.

It threw me the error message "Password length minimum: 7. Non-alphanumeric characters required: 1"

I am a senior programmer, with around 9 years experience in web development. I didn't need to read the full message to understand what it is. So, I changed the password to 'test123' and tried again. Too bad! same message again.

I realised that it is looking for atleast 1 upper case in the password. So I changed the password to Test123 and tried again. Same error again.

This time I decided to spend few seconds to read the error message - it says "Non-alphanumeric characters required: 1", which means there should be atleast one Non Alpha Numeric Character".

I changed the password to "Test!123" and it worked great!

Guys, don't be like me. Read the error message fully, before you debug!

put the below code in your web.config file in the and the problem will be solved If you read the code carefully you will understand the problem. Earlier the asp.net engine was picking these values from machine.config. Yiou can check your machine.config for more information

connectionStringName="LocalSqlServer" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" requiresUniqueEmail="true" passwordFormat="Hashed" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0" minRequiredPasswordLength="3"/>
