cannot change a bbs password

After modifying I cannot log in, old and new passwords don't work. My new password is 20 symbols long, only digits, maybe its length or contents is restricted?

Re: cannot change a bbs password

your new password for the BBS (the one that gets e-mailed to you when you follow this link: http://bbs.archlinux.org/login.php?action=forget ) should only be 8 characters long.  At least it is 8 characters each time I request a new password.  If it is longer then I would guess that your e-mail client or web browser is not displaying it correctly.

If you've changed it because you forgot it, read this: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=75399


archlinux - please read this and this — twice — then ask questions.

No, I did not forget my password. I used the "Change password" link on the "Profile/Essentials" page.
