Exception for PASSWORD_REQUIREMENTS_NOT_MET

Heng Yu shared this question ago

Answered

Hello,

We are using an application that integrates Yellowfin and need to login into our app using LDAP and then access Yellowfin. However, some users will get the error message Not Authenticate when accessing Yellowfin.

I have checked the logs in Yellowfin, it shows the following for the user who failed to access

/b8537abd3e339ed8ce3a07395c3a8b28

The use who can access the Yellowfin successfully has the following logs:

/27da7d8239c291e33238090e5fe3fe49

I assume that the app first checks if the userID is existed in Yellowfin, if not (according to the error code 8) then will create a new user in Yellowfin.

My question is that when the exception PASSWORD_REQUIREMENTS_NOT_MET (code 38) will be thrown? Is that happening when inserting the user into Yellowfin (insert into the Ipclass table in Yellowfin?) And the password requirement is according to the password setting, right?

Hi Heng,

Thanks for the reply here. I'm wondering if the length resrtiction is impacted by the encryption.... can you try increasing max length to a very large value and report results?

Thanks,

Eric

Hello Eric,

Thanks for the quick response, I have checked the Yellowfin version is 9.7.0.3 and JAVA is 1.8.0_271, so I do not think those things will be impacted.

Hi Heng,

Thanks for the update, glad this worked! I wonder if maybe there could be a way for YF to "automatically" adjust this value if LDAP / encryption is used, as I could see this caveat being unclear, would you agree or be interested in pursuing this type of development task?

Thanks,

Eric

Hi Eric,Sorry, I am afraid that I do not have permission to involve in that. Our company bought the application that integrates with Yellowfin. The code and how they are integrated are hidden from me.
