A new user with temporary password can not log in successfully after changing password. about elements HOT 6 CLOSED

After attempting to login, the user receives:

Login to Hypar failed.
The publish command was not recognized. Try 'hypar help'.

This is a red herring. The failed login attempt is making PublishCommand.CanExecute return false. This does require a fix though.

Cognito has policies in place for password requirements:

It's possible that the new password supplied by the user doesn't meet these criteria and we're not handling the response.

I was able to reproduce this by creating a new user with a valid temporary password, but by trying to create an invalid password:

Enter your user name:
test2
Enter your password:
************
	waiting...
	Enter your desired new password:
****
Login to Hypar failed.
The publish command was not recognized. Try 'hypar help'.

We need to catch whatever exception is provided by the Cognito API regarding a non-conforming password.

Now when a user attempts to enter a new password that doesn't conform to the policy, they receive the following:

Enter your user name:
test3
Enter your password:
************
	waiting...
	Enter your desired new password:
*****
Passwords must be a minimum of 8 characters, and contain upper and lower case letters, a number, and a special character.
The publish command was not recognized. Try 'hypar help'.

This is fixed in 4c044c8.
