K2 Service Account Password Special Characters

For K2 installations and upgrades, avoid using these special characters in your K2 service account passwords:

  • Single quote (')
  • Double quote (")
  • Opening angle bracket (<)
  • Closing angle bracket (>)
  • Ampersand (&)

Using these characters can potentially lead to compatibility issues or unexpected behavior within the system.
