Password requirements won't allow numbers or special characters

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install from source (svn co), or the latest two zip files
2. Go to change password
3. Read the requirement "Must not include any numeric characters"
4. Update in the ConfigManager to allow (true) numbers in passwords
5. Double check WEB-INF/PwmConfiguration.xml and force 
`password.policy.allowNumeric` to have the subkey `<value>true</value>`
6. Restart tomcat7 just in case...

I expect that numbers will be allowed but they will not, no matter what my 
settings are.

I'm using the latest version from SVN with OpenLDAP 2.4.28

Checking the logs I see the following entry:

Fri Aug 16 11:16:23 CDT 2013, INFO , password.pwm.PwmApplication, loaded pwm 
global password policy: PwmPasswordPolicy: {MinimumLowerCase=0, 
MinimumSpecial=1, MaximumUpperCase=0, MaximumNumeric=0, MaximumOldChars=0, 
EnableWordlist=true, MinimumLifetime=0, RegExMatch=, MinimumUnique=0, 
MinimumNonAlpha=0, DisallowedAttributes=[cn, givenName, sn], 
DisallowCurrent=true, MinimumStrength=0, AllowNumeric=true, ChangeMessage=, 
MinimumAlpha=0, MaximumLowerCase=0, AllowSpecial=false, ADComplexity=false, 
MaximumLength=0, MaximumRepeat=0, AllowFirstCharNumeric=true, MinimumLength=7, 
MaximumSequentialRepeat=0, AllowLastCharSpecial=false, MinimumNumeric=0, 
MaximumAlpha=0, RegExNoMatch=, MaximumNonAlpha=0, MaximumSpecial=0, 
MinimumUpperCase=0, AllowFirstCharSpecial=false, DisallowedValues=[password, 
test], AllowLastCharNumeric=true}

Especially the attribute "AllowNumeric=true" implies that this should be 
functional. However, it still is not.

I've tried with the Password policy source as "Local", "Merged", and "PWM". 
None of the settings offers a working configuration. 

Help?

The issue has magically and inexplicably resolved itself.

Hooray for magic.  In the future, please ask for help on the pwm-general google 
group.  These issues are for reporting defects.

I have the same issue: 
allow numeric but number is still not allowed in the password.
checked WEB-INF/PwmConfiguration.xml and `password.policy.allowNumeric` is 
default, even I manually set it to `<value>true</value>`, then restart tomcat7, 
still cannot make it work.

version: pwm1.7.1

Thanks
