There is no bug. As the error message says the minimum length for user passwords is not valid. From your screenshot you will find the option on the tab labelled Password Options.

If you need any further help on this pleas4e use the forums https://forum.joomla.org

Re-Opening. The message is the bug. Show users what they can do to resolve the problem. The message must say that minimum password length is 12 characters

it is only 12 if that is what has been configured for the site. It can be configured as low as 8 and as high as 4096

ah- I think I misunderstood you @chmst

Did you mean that the error message should say something like "Invalid field: Minimum Password Length - 12 characters required"
