Password Generator does not respect password length setting

**m.mirzayev** · Jul 9th 2015

When i change the minimum password cahracter length in the backend as the administrator from 6 to 12 the password generator does not respect this setting when generating passwords.
The password generator still uses 8 character passwords which is then not compatible with the policy and i need to adjust the password manually.

Is this a bug or am i missing something?

Hi,

yes, this behavior is at my system (1.2.9), too. Maybe you can open a ticket at Bugtracker? Thanks

Hi,

I think the problem is in /var/www/imscp/gui/themes/default/assets/js/imscp.js on line 127.
When you need the password length urgent, you can change this value from 8 to 12.

I think the function must get the value from the config, but it is currently hard coded.

The BugTracker seems currently off and I can't report it.

Bugtracker should be opened. Switch to a subpage and retry to login..
