Which ATG Patchset level you are on?
Have a look at these.
I hope your password is following the rules.Quote: | Password
Enter the initial password of an application user. An application user enters this password along with his username to sign on to Oracle Applications.
1. A password must be at least five (5) characters and can be up to thirty (30) characters.
2. All characters are allowed except control characters, which are non-printable. Oracle encourages the use of non-alphanumeric characters because they add complexity, making passwords harder to guess.
This window does not display the password you enter. After you enter a password, you must re-enter it to ensure you did not make a typing error.
If the application user already exists and the two entries do not match, the original password is not changed and an error message is displayed.
If you are defining a new application user and the two entries do not match, you are required to enter the password again. For a new user, you cannot navigate to the next field until the two entries match.
The first time an application user signs on, he must change his password. If a user forgets his password, you can reassign a new password in this field.
As System Administrator, you can set an initial password or change an existing password, but you cannot access the user's chosen password.
You can set the minimum length of Oracle Applications user passwords using the profile option Signon Password Length. If this profile option is left unset, the minimum length defaults to 5.
You can set the minimum number of days that a user must wait before being allowed to reuse a password with the Signon Password No Reuse profile option.
You can use the profile option Signon Password Hard to Guess to set rules for choosing passwords to ensure that they will be "hard to guess." A password is considered hard-to-guess if it follows these rules:
1. The password contains at least one letter and at least one number.
2. The password does not contain the username.
3. The password does not contain repeating characters.
The Signon Password Failure Limit profile option determines the maximum number of login attempts before the user's account is disabled.
