Password and its confirmation should be identical.

Error message

Password and its confirmation should be identical.

What it means

ConfirmativePasswordPropertyEditor.convertInputToValue compares the two password fields; when they differ it raises a Wicket ConversionException (localized message) so the form re-renders with the error instead of saving a mistyped password.

Solutions

1. Retype the password identically in both fields.
2. Clear autofilled fields and enter the password manually in both boxes.
3. If only changing/not changing a password, leave both fields empty.

Example fix

// before
input="pw1"; inputAgain="pw2";
// after
input="pw1"; inputAgain="pw1";

function canSubmit(pwd, confirm){ return (pwd||confirm) ? pwd === confirm : true; }

When it happens

Trigger: input != inputAgain after conversion, or input is null but inputAgain is non-null (only confirmation typed).

Common situations: Typos in one of the two password boxes; user fills only the confirm field; browser autofill filling one field only.
