NetUserChangePassword()

[Ghost1987]

Seem to be correct code but it fails to change password:

#NoTrayIcon
#include <Array.au3>

Global $aRet = _NetUserChangePassword("User","user","qwerty")
_ArrayDisplay($aRet, "Debug")

Func _NetUserChangePassword($sUsername, $sOldPassword, $sNewPassword, $sServer = '')

    Local $aRet = DllCall("Netapi32.dll", "int", "NetUserChangePassword", _
            "wstr", $sServer, "wstr", $sUsername, "wstr", $sOldPassword, "wstr", $sNewPassword)
   ;If $aRet[0] Then Return SetError(1, $aRet[0], False)
    
    Return $aRet
EndFunc     ;_NetUserChangePassword

Any ideas how to correct this?

And maybe translate error codes that are returned from this function.

Try getting the last error after the function call. Maybe it's as simple as an access denied error. Does it work in another language?

_WinAPI_GetLastError()

_WinAPI_GetLastError()

Thanks for the tip.

Something like this?

#NoTrayIcon
#include <Array.au3>
#include <WinAPI.au3>

Global $aRet = _NetUserChangePassword("User","user","qwerty")
$Ret = _WinAPI_GetLastError()
MsgBox(64, "Debug", $Ret)
$Ret = _WinAPI_GetLastErrorMessage()
MsgBox(64, "Debug", $Ret)
_ArrayDisplay($aRet, "Debug")

Func _NetUserChangePassword($sUsername, $sOldPassword, $sNewPassword, $sServer = '')

    Local $aRet = DllCall("Netapi32.dll", "int", "NetUserChangePassword", _
            "wstr", $sServer, "wstr", $sUsername, "wstr", $sOldPassword, "wstr", $sNewPassword)
  ;If $aRet[0] Then Return SetError(1, $aRet[0], False)
    
    Return $aRet
EndFunc ;_NetUserChangePassword

Function returns operation successful but, password stays the same.

What I am doing wrong?

Help me!

After some googling I've found out that this function is buggy, so I'll try to use NetValidateName instead.

Thx for help.
