Changing Stat password up to 21 character the Second Pass Login error is raised
Description

A password longer than 21 characters cause Second Pass login error when logging into Stat Windows client. I tried password change with passwords of different length:
ABCDEFGHIJabcdefgh (19 characters) - no issues
ABCDEFGHIJabcdefghi (20 characters) - no issues
ABCDEFGHIJabcdefghij (21 characters) - no issues
ABCDEFGHIJabcdefghijk (22 characters) - second pass login error
ABCDEFGHIJabcdefghij (21 characters) - no issues again.
Supposedly, there should not be any restriction on STAT database passwords because LOGINPWD column in STAT_LOGIN is varchar2(100 bytes), so 20+ character password should not be a problem.
Cause

It looks like it is a bug in the field length of the client window where the user enter the password.
Resolution

The actual encryption manager code does not have an issue with the password length. Development will fix the issue in Stat 6.3.
Workaround:
Use password shorter than 21 characters.
