现象：设置简单密码会报错：

ERROR 1819 (HY000): Your password does not satisfy the current policy requirements

原因：

原来MySQL5.6.6版本之后增加了密码强度验证插件validate_password，相关参数设置的较为严格。使用了该插件会检查设置的密码是否符合当前设置的强度规则，若不满足则拒绝设置。影响的语句和函数有：create user,grant,set password,password(),old password。

解决：

该问题其实与mysql的validate_password_policy的值有关，查看一下msyql密码相关的几个全局参数：

参数解释

validate_password_dictionary_file
插件用于验证密码强度的字典文件路径。

validate_password_length
密码最小长度，参数默认为8，它有最小值的限制，最小值为：validate_password_number_count + validate_password_special_char_count + (2 * validate_password_mixed_case_count)

validate_password_mixed_case_count
密码至少要包含的小写字母个数和大写字母个数。

validate_password_number_count
密码至少要包含的数字个数。

validate_password_policy
密码强度检查等级，0/LOW、1/MEDIUM、2/STRONG。有以下取值：
<u style=”box-sizing: border-box;”>Policy Tests Performed </u>
0 or LOW Length
1 or MEDIUM Length; numeric, lowercase/uppercase, and special characters
2 or STRONG Length; numeric, lowercase/uppercase, and special characters; dictionary file
默认是1，即MEDIUM，所以刚开始设置的密码必须符合长度，且必须含有数字，小写或大写字母，特殊字符。

validate_password_special_char_count

密码至少要包含的特殊字符数。
