Cannot log into VicuñaUploader 1.23 #118

On Windows 7 Home Premium, I can not log into VicuñaUploader 1.23. My login is "Jan Polák". Where is the problem? Thank you.

Now it's OK, It was necessary to change the password. Existing was too short.

Friend of mine had the same problem. Looks like at least the Wikimedia wikis meanwhile require eight characters. I don't know if there is a way to retrieve $wgMinimalPasswordLength via API or if it would be an idea to show a more precise error message when trying to log in with a shorter password? Else people might search forever ...
