Change Password does not work (always: "Passwords don't match")

[derwok]

When I use

    {{#if currentUser}}
      {{> atForm state='changePwd'}}
       // ....

I get a cool looking password change dialog like in the attached image.

The dialog has two text inputs:

• Password
• Password (again)

I entered almost 10 times password pairs that exactly machted (trust me!). But I get the error "Password (again): Passwords don't match". On the server I get this log:

I20150409-21:41:09.200(2)? Exception while invoking method 'changePassword' Error: Match error: Failed Match.OneOf or Match.Optional validation

When I look into packages/accounts-password/password_server.js:272:1 I see this line:

Meteor.methods({changePassword: function (oldPassword, newPassword) {

So it seems the framework need also the old password (which makes sense!).

Finally I think there is a bug here in the materilaized dialog where an entry field for the old password is missing...

Can anybody help?

Hi @derwok!

There must be a bug, for sure! Lets have a look at the change password page (being logged in...): it seems all is working correctly.

Could you confirm configuring the change password route works fine also for you? Then I'll try to dig it a little more...

Thanks!

@derwok, I've quickly tested {{> atForm state='changePwd'}} locally and everything seems fine from my side...

Are you using the latest version useraccounts:materialize@1.8.1?

I got the same problem. My solution is: AccountsTemplates.configure({ ... enablePasswordChange: true, ... })
