Hi, it seems that for some reason cracklib has failed to generate /var/cache/cracklib/cracklib_dict.pwd (or /var/cache/cracklib/cracklib_dict.pwd.gz).
There is a daily cronjob that is supposed to regenerate /var/cache/cracklib/cracklib_dict.pwd if the dictionaries it used as input are newer. I'm not sure why it's not generating your file correctly; you can manually run it via `sudo sh -xe /usr/sbin/update- cracklib` to see what's going wrong. Also, for diagnostic purposes without needed to attempt to change the passwd, you can do `echo PASSWD | cracklib-check` to see if it is functioning correctly. It would be good to work out how your system got in this state. ** Information type changed from Private Security to Public Security ** Information type changed from Public Security to Public -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1909596 Title: Error on trying to change password To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cracklib2/+bug/1909596/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
