Description

Something strange has happened today in my test environment:

  • Moodle 1.9.x (current from CVS).
  • Logged as admin and was requested to change pass. Oki. Set it to xxxx (fulfilling policies).
  • Use the "login as" feature to stay as editing teacher for some hours.
  • Click in the "Admin" link to leave the "login as" feature.
  • I was requested to change pass again! And did that from xxxx to yyyy (so the first change xxxx had happened).

Added here per Petr request. Ciao

Confirmed, already happens in 1.8 and, I bet, in HEAD. Adding versions.

hmm, the change of password is forced during upgrade for all admins, in which step above did you upgrade?

I changed password yesterday/today morning as part of the upgrade or after login, not sure (the form was presented to me). Then I changed the password (I know that because I just added one * to it). Then I continue working and, after playing as teacher, when leaving that, the change password page was presented to me again. And I know I had already changed the password in that site because in the old password I had to write my password with that * (that never has been part of my password) and set the new one with two **. Not sure if, while being logged as teacher I did another cvs update or no (I think no).

Ciao
