Can't change password of installation user (no LDAP)

[mariodebian@…]

Enabling PAM in

 https://localhost/Users/Composite/Settings

I can't change password of installation user in System->General or by shell with "passwd username".

Error in log:

==> /var/log/zentyal/error.log <==
chpasswd: (user administrador) pam_chauthtok() failed, error:
Authentication token manipulation error
chpasswd: (line 1, user administrador) password not changed

Disabling PAM revert passwd behaviour and I can change password from zentyal panel or by shell without problems.

Yes, this is an already known issue. I think that currently your options are either disable PAM or edit /etc/passwd by hand... (maybe there is any other tool different than passwd that can do that without using PAM).

We'll see if we can do about this someday...

Thanks for reporting anyway!

I fix the problem by running: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow libpam-runtime

Is this a correct solution?
