Password field of preferences defective

[iaby]

Hi everyone,

i always get this error message when i try to upload my osm file out of JOSM.
My login works fine on the website, i can upload and edit my gpx files.
I'm using JOSM version 928, openSuse 11.0, java 1.6.0 and no proxy.
I also tried a lot of older JOSM versions, none works for me.

I tried to login both with my nickname and my email adress.

I also did a short capture with wireshark and it seems that my login data isn't transmitted at all! Neither the username nor the password!
Or is it transmitted encrypted, although it tells me it won't?

Please check if the password is in the preferences file of josm. Check if it is correct (correct case, no additional spaces). Also check the same for your user name.

Do you use the JOSM from openSUSE Buildservice?

I just checked the ~/.josm/preferences file:
it saved my password mixed up the "z" and "y" !!
I have two "y" in my password which were saved as "z"!
But if i type a "y" in the username field, a "y" is displayed!
So it seems that only the password edit gets the wrong character.

I'm not using the openSuse build, only the official one(s) from openstreetmap.org.

I now entered my password with "z" and everything works fine for me!

Any ideas whats wrong with the password edit field?

I forgot to mention that i am using a german keyboard layout!

Actually it seems the JPasswordField of Java is buggy. On my installation it is impossible to change the password.
