Password too long?
« on: August 05, 2006, 07:03:21 pm »
Hiya all

I joined this VA last night and got all set up etc.  I was given a random password on signup wich worked fine.  However I thought I would change my password to something easier for me to remember.  I changed it to a 10 character password, and now flight logger wont take a password any longer than 8 characters lol.

Sooo i thought OK no problem I'll go back to my profile and change it to something smaller, but it appears that the old password field in the profile also only accepts 8 character passwords but the new password field will accept 10.  So now im stuck with my 10 character password.  I can log into the site fine but I cant use the flight logger and I have a flight booked on propilot :(

I have emailed my hub manager for EGLL but being the weekend and nice weather he is probably very busy.  I really would like to do a flight tonight with propilot but all seems lost at the moment.

Any tips on what to do?


Many thanks in advance
Dean Farley.

Dean,

Not sure if someone got in before me, but according to our control panel your password was already 8 chars long (4 numbers, 4 letters), but I changed it any how, check your U2U...

Razza, check yours as well (how you can forget the CPanel URL I will never know...)
