# If true it will automatically generate a password if it is empty
# and email it to the user.
GeneratePasswordIfEmpty=true

and set it to

I've tried to modify the site.ini file through the admin interface (Setup tab -> inisettings) but it doesn't take effect at all.
I'm now going to edit it manually (even it's not recommended). Hope it'll work.

It's not recommended to edit site.ini itself. The preferred way is to edit the override file, in your case override/site.ini.append(.php). Simply set the setting to the value you prefer in that file.

Can anyone explain to me what does the line "GeneratePasswordLength=6" mean ?

I believe it to be the length of the created password. 6 characters, that is.

When <b>GeneratePasswordIfEmpty</b> is set to <i>true</i> the system send an additional e-mail to user with automatically generated password even a password field was filled correctly. If the setting set to <i>false</i> the system allow empty passwords. Is it correct behaviour?

I need the system neither generate password when appropriate field is filled nor allow empty passwords. This should be a correct procedure, isn't it? Or I've broken something myself?

eZ Publish version is 3.5.0
