While Creating User am getting below Error :

can any one explain me ((?=.*\d.*)(?=.*[a-z].*)(?=.*[A-Z].*)(?=.*[@#%\*\-+=~\[\]{}<>\?].*).{12,}) expression ?

javax.jcr.nodetype.ConstraintViolationException: Password violates password constraint ((?=.*\d.*)(?=.*[a-z].*)(?=.*[A-Z].*)(?=.*[@#%\*\-+=~\[\]{}<>\?].*).{12,}).

Thanks

this is a regular expresssion, which describes the format of a password. Looks like you entered characters which are not allowed. I interpret "((?=.*\d.*)(?=.*[a-z].*)(?=.*[A-Z].*)(?=.*[@#%\*\-+=~\[\]{}<>\?].*).{12,})" like this:

The password must consist of at least 12 characters; allowed characters are digits, lower and uppercase latin characters (that means a-z), and the characters "@", "#", "%", "*","-","+","=","~","[","]","{","}","<",">" and "?".

Hm, I read the regular expresssion in a way, that any of these characters is allowed, and that no single character class is required.

That's a good question.I meant to say that at least one capital letter is required (?=.*[A-Z].*), in case of the string I tested (Julio342**/%$) I provided first capital letter but it could be any other letter.

Hi,

a small question: Where do see that an initial capital letter is required?

I believe you are looking for a good explanation of such Regular Expression and maybe you also wonder what would be a good password that complies with such. Go ahead an paste that Regular Expression at https://regex101.com/ . That website will give you an explanation plus it'll let you test expressions, I've tried something like Julio342**/%$ which does comply with the Regular Expression (-Notice that an Initial Capital letter is required)
