Public Overridable Property NewPasswordRegularExpressionErrorMessage As String

Property Value

String

The error message shown when the password entered does not pass the regular expression defined in the NewPasswordRegularExpression. The default is Empty.

Examples

The following code example shows how to set the NewPasswordRegularExpression property to define a regular expression that checks passwords to ensure that they meet the following criteria:

Are greater than six characters.
Contain at least one digit.
Contain at least one special (non-alphanumeric) character.

The password requirements contained in the PasswordHintText property are displayed to the user.

If the password entered by the user does not meet the criteria, the text contained in the NewPasswordRegularExpressionErrorMessage property is displayed to the user. If a new password is not entered, the text contained in the NewPasswordRequiredErrorMessage property is displayed to the user.

Note

The new password must also meet the minimum requirements set by the membership provider in the MinRequiredPasswordLength, MinRequiredNonAlphanumericCharacters, and PasswordStrengthRegularExpression properties. If the password does not meet these requirements, the ChangePasswordError event is raised.

Remarks

Use the NewPasswordRegularExpressionErrorMessage property to inform the user that the password entered does not pass the regular expression defined in the NewPasswordRegularExpression property.

The NewPasswordRegularExpressionErrorMessage is not related to the password enforcement that can be configured at the data store level. The new password must meet the minimum requirements set by the membership provider in the MinRequiredPasswordLength, MinRequiredNonAlphanumericCharacters, and PasswordStrengthRegularExpression properties. If the password does not meet these requirements, the ChangePasswordError event is raised.
