Description dexxus 2009-11-09 00:20:21 UTC
Hello,

i tried to change my password because your mail suggested i should do this.

"Your account has been migrated to the new NetBeans.org infrastructure.
Here are your new account credentials:
You will be asked to change your password when you login for the first time."

on the first try it failed because i did use a "_"  in the password.
On the second try i only used valid characters and instead of a password saved message it throws me back to the first password change dialog.
i didn't want to play this "game" any longer and closed the page.
Now i have gotten a mail that says:
"Looks like you changed your password for dexxus on Netbeans.org.
The NetBeans Team" 

but none of the used passwords or the original you sent me, does work.
Neither does the forgotten password page exist.

can you please fix this.

regards
Udo

Please, use this link http://netbeans.org/people/forgot_password that will allow to send you new password.

Sorry for the trouble.  Are you still having password issue?  Would you mind if we change for you manually to get you started back to allow password to be changed.

BTW, we only allow ^[a-zA-Z0-9!#$%=+|~`:;,{}<>/*()'?\"&]{6,80}$ in a password for now.

Thanks,
-Lea

Please confirm whether the change password works for you or not.  Waiting for user feedback.
