Description Petr Kremensky 2014-02-11 07:28:00 UTC

Title: Add-user Command Arguments

Describe the issue:
Password requirements listed in documentation are following:
- It can not be the same as the user name.
- It must contain at least 8 characters.
- It must contain at least one alphanumeric character.
- It must contain at least one digit.
- It must contain at least one non-alphanumeric symbol

Suggestions for improvement:
 - since user name can contain only alphanumeric characters the user name and password can never be the same. 
 - requirement for alphabetic character in password is missing

Password requirements should be as following:
- It must contain at least 8 characters.
- It must contain at least one alphabetic character.
- It must contain at least one digit.
- It must contain at least one non-alphanumeric symbol

Additional information:
We should also update description of 'user' with something like:
- Only alphanumeric characters are allowed

Comment 1 sgilda 2014-02-11 13:16:14 UTC

I'll take this one.

Comment 2 sgilda 2014-02-11 13:52:40 UTC

When you type: bin/add-user.sh --help, under --password, it says: 
Password of the user. Should not be same as the username

I will create a separate issue for the add-user script.

Mofified this topic: Add-user Command Arguments [22537, rev: 588479]

It appears in the following guides:

14874, Administration and Configuration Guide, JBoss Enterprise Application Platform, 6.2

16868, Installation Guide, Red Hat JBoss Fuse Service Works, 6.1

22508, Administration and Configuration Guide, JBoss Enterprise Application Platform, 6.3

22586, Installation Guide, Red Hat JBoss Fuse Service Works, 6

Comment 3 Petr Kremensky 2014-02-11 14:56:05 UTC

You're right I forgot on help message, can you please add the dependency on the BZ you'll create into BZ1063861 so I can track it all in one place. Thanks.

Comment 4 sgilda 2014-02-11 15:28:06 UTC

Created Bugzilla 1063888 for the add-user script usage.

Comment 5 sgilda 2014-02-26 20:44:11 UTC

The fix can be verified here:

http://documentation-devel.engineering.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/JBoss_Enterprise_Application_Platform/6.3/html-single/Administration_and_Configuration_Guide/index.html#Add-user_Command_Arguments

Comment 6 Petr Kremensky 2014-02-27 09:25:52 UTC

There is one more place in installation guide to be fixed
http://documentation-devel.engineering.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/JBoss_Enterprise_Application_Platform/6.3/html-single/Installation_Guide/index.html#Run_the_JBoss_Enterprise_Application_Platform_Installer1

see description of "Section B.4, “Administrative User Creation”"

Shall I create a new BZ only for installation guide and close this one, or can we cover this here?

Comment 7 sgilda 2014-02-27 13:04:41 UTC

Normally I would say to create a new bug for tracking purposes. But, in the interest of expediency, I just went ahead and fixed it. :-)

Run the JBoss EAP Installation Program [26728, rev: 606701]

I will move this to ON_QA when the Installation Guide is rebuilt.

Comment 8 Russell Dickenson 2014-03-10 23:25:08 UTC

The revised content is available in revisions 6.3.0-3 (or higher) at [1] and [2].

Verified during EAP 6.3.0.DR2 testing cycle
