[midPoint] Password Inbound from Database Table

[Martin Marchese]

Hi All,

We are using a Database table connector (using PostgreSQL 9.5) to create
users into midpoint, and we are facing a problem while we try to set their
password.

Connector version is 1.4.2.0 and MidPoint version is 3.4.1

We have configured a password policy that complies with all passwords
within the database.

Password column is configured correctly in the connector configuration. I
was looking into the samples and I see that every samples uses the
<generate> option as it follows:

<credentials>
<password>
<outbound/>
<inbound>
<strength>weak</strength>
<expression>
<generate/>
</expression>
</inbound>
</password>
</credentials>


My first thought was that replacing the expression as it follows it will
work:

<credentials>
<password>
<outbound/>
<inbound>
<strength>weak</strength>
<expression>
<asIs/>
</expression>
</inbound>
</password>
</credentials>

However, when I run an import or livesync task i receive the following
error:

Provided password does not satisfy password policies. Required minimal size
(4) of password is not met (password length: 0)

As if the password was not coming from the database. Also, when I look into
the resource object thru the UI, the password attribute is empty.

I took a look at this bug just in case:
https://jira.evolveum.com/browse/MID-2405, but it was a different behavior
since for me, it fails with every password I try.

Any ideas on what I'm missing here?

Thanks in advance.
