prysm-only/create-account.yaml # Failing on password req in test setup - how to recover?

[cgi1]

So I was trying it out using the TestNet and gave a weak password... Now right before the setup finishes, the loader complaines about password policy:
Could not import accounts: could not initialize wallet: password did not pass validation: password must have at least 8 characters, at least 1 alphabetical character, 1 unicode symbol, and 1 number

Grr - Sure its very good to have that in MainNet.. But now I get stuck and wonder how to proceed from here?

Can I change my existing password to match the requirements or do I need to generate new validator configs?

My steps:

Copy templates:

cd /opt/ethereum2-docker-compose/
cp compose-examples/prysm-only/docker-compose.yaml 
cp compose-examples/prysm-only/create-account.yaml ./

Copy keystore & deposit file:

mkdir -p /opt/ethereum2-docker-compose/launchpad/eth2.0-deposit-cli/validator_keys
cd /opt/ethereum2-docker-compose/launchpad/eth2.0-deposit-cli/validator_keys/
cp /opt/ethereum2-docker-compose/launchpad/deposit_data-XYZ.json ./
cp /opt/ethereum2-docker-compose/launchpad/keystore-m_XYZjson ./

Enter password / Create wallet dir:

cd /opt/ethereum2-docker-compose/
mkdir -p data/prysm/validator/wallets
vim data/prysm/validator/passwords/wallet-password

(saved pw to file)

Try to run it:

cd /opt/ethereum2-docker-compose/
sudo docker-compose -f create-account.yaml run validator-import-launchpad

But sadly it fails:

[2021-02-21 18:03:34] FATAL accounts: 
Could not import accounts: could not initialize wallet: 
password did not pass validation:

The password you want to have for your wallet prysm is safed in data/prysm/validator/passwords/wallet-password and this is the failing password. Unfortunately prysm doesn't use a weaker password checker for testnet, so you need to have a strong password also on testnet. There is also no way to disable the password check.

To prevent confusion: There is also a password to decrypt your lanchpad validator_keys files, this one is not checked by prysm's password check because it's only used to import the files. The importer then decrypts the keys again with the strong password defined in data/prysm/validator/passwords/wallet-password.
