Hello guys,
I just bought a VPS server Linux Ubuntu 20.04 and I installed MySQL database on it.
After run command SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES LIKE 'validate_password%' I got results as below:
+--------------------------------------+--------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+--------------------------------------+--------+
| validate_password_check_user_name | OFF |
| validate_password_dictionary_file | |
| validate_password_length | 8 |
| validate_password_mixed_case_count | 1 |
| validate_password_number_count | 1 |
| validate_password_policy | MEDIUM |
| validate_password_special_char_count | 1 |
+--------------------------------------+--------+
And then I try to create a user for MySQL by using the command below:
create user 'demo'@'localhost' identified by 'demo'
And I got an exception throw "ERROR 1819 (HY000): Your password does not satisfy the current policy requirements".
What are current policy requirements? Anyone can explain it to me?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Have 2 answer(s) found.

See this policy for creating passwords:
+--------------------------------------+--------+ | Variable_name | Value | +--------------------------------------+--------+ | validate_password_check_user_name | OFF | | validate_password_dictionary_file | | | validate_password_length | 8 | | validate_password_mixed_case_count | 1 | | validate_password_number_count | 1 | | validate_password_policy | MEDIUM | | validate_password_special_char_count | 1 | +--------------------------------------+--------+It's mean that:
- Length of the password must be min from 8 characters.
- Must contain a number
- Must contain an uppercase character.
- Must contain a special character
=> I think it's easy to make a password match with this policy. For example:
create user 'demo'@'localhost' identified by 'Demo_cv9s'I hope it solve for you.

You created a user with a password is "demo", It so short and does not match with the rule of your MySQL setting for password. You have 2 solutions:
1. Set your password more strong.
Change pass from
demotoei7veeChu4boby using the command below:create user 'demo'@'localhost' identified by 'ei7veeChu4bo'2. Change setting password policy
You can run some commands below :
mysql> SET GLOBAL validate_password_length = 4; mysql> SET GLOBAL validate_password_number_count = 0; mysql> SET GLOBAL validate_password.policy = LOW;note: don't forget, you need to run with root access by using the command
mysql -u root -pto grant all permission.
