Someone used a password generator, and the password caused some GraphSpace errors. I don't know what those errors were, but are there any characters that are not allowed in the password?

@annaritz Do you know the size of password fed by the password generators ? Can you give some examples ?

@mitchwagner, I was talking about these validators.

Sorry, I don't know, unfortunately. If a student has the same issue I'll let you know more details.

Hello @jahandaniyal @adbharadwaj @annaritz
I had used several password combinations for the passwords generated by an online password generator(https://passwordsgenerator.net/) to check their vailidity. I came up with the following obvservations:

  1. Password of length 16 characters and including A-Z,a-z, special characters( e.g. @#$% ),
    numbers( e.g. 123456 ), Excluding Similar Characters:( e.g. i, l, 1, L, o, 0, O ), Exclude Ambiguous Characters:( { } [ ] ( ) / \ ' " ` ~ , ; : . < > )
    password used: r6UR566/-S9(5;XH

  2. Password of length 32 characters and including A-Z,a-z, special characters( e.g. @#$% ),
    numbers( e.g. 123456 ), Excluding Similar Characters:( e.g. i, l, 1, L, o, 0, O ), Exclude Ambiguous Characters:( { } [ ] ( ) / \ ' " ` ~ , ; : . < > )
    password used: Mx,jC+7'Ug$6eL5/??!c~Kkr!q*V=d;z

  3. Password of length 16 characters and including A-Z,a-z, not using special characters( e.g. @#$% ),
    numbers( e.g. 123456 ), Excluding Similar Characters:( e.g. i, l, 1, L, o, 0, O ), Exclude Ambiguous Characters:( { } [ ] ( ) / \ ' " ` ~ , ; : . < > )
    password used: ct2ZeD3Kj7m9zE2d

  4. Password of length 16 characters and including not using A-Z,a-z, special characters( e.g. @#$% ),
    numbers( e.g. 123456 ), Excluding Similar Characters:( e.g. i, l, 1, L, o, 0, O ), Exclude Ambiguous Characters:( { } [ ] ( ) / \ ' " ` ~ , ; : . < > )
    password used: u!zfm!<^t2v_~:fn

  5. Password of length 16 characters and including A-Z, a-z, special characters( e.g. @#$% ),
    numbers( e.g. 123456 ), Excluding Similar Characters:( e.g. i, l, 1, L, o, 0, O ), including Ambiguous Characters:( { } [ ] ( ) / \ ' " ` ~ , ; : . < > )
    password used: u!zfm!<^t2v_~:fn

  6. Password of length 16 characters and including A-Z, a-z, special characters( e.g. @#$% ),
    numbers( e.g. 123456 ), including Similar Characters:( e.g. i, l, 1, L, o, 0, O ), including Ambiguous Characters:( { } [ ] ( ) / \ ' " ` ~ , ; : . < > )
    password used: 3IzPL"B;KU7t>C

In all the above combinations I found that the password was getting accepted without the erro. SO I couldn't replicate the issue mentioned above. Maybe a replication scenario for the above issue will be helpful.
