Dear Andrius,

I logged in for Manage depositions>view your deposition>clicked on 
deposited structure 3000217>clicked on Update - I was in "Validation and 
Deposition Interface">clicked on radio-button "Do not change the hold 
period" and "Begin update">clicked on "Edit">In "Your CIF file contents" 
window I deleted the whole text there and pasted the updated vesion of 
the CIF; in "Description of changes..." window I wrote "By accicent the 
originally deposited structure had wrong absolute structure. The updated 
cif corrects this error." and clicked on "Save and check">Green message 
appeared "File [3000217.cif] is correct" and I clicked on "Update" 
button and then the message appeared "cif-deposit.pl: password 
'password' value from the upload form contains unallowed characters (not 
in '(.{4,64})')".

I tried it just now with a different result.
the sequence of the steps was the same but today the error message is 
different "cif-deposit.pl: submitting author 'Petr Brázda' does not 
match any author in the data_I author list ('Brazda, P.', 'Palatinus, 
L.', 'Babor, M.') -- will not deposit the structure, the prepublication 
structures and personal communications must be deposited by one of the 
authors". I had problems with this yesterday too because I wrote in my 
personal details my surmane "Brázda" but in cif it must be "Br\'azda". 
Therefore I changed my profile to "Brazda" and also changed the CIF to 
"Brazda". Now everything is ok, but the message still appears.

Then I tried the whole procedure again but this time I did not delete 
the whole text in the "Your CIF file contents" window but only the 
title, atomic coordinates and also the non-recognized words part. Then I 
clicked on update and the same error message as yesterday appeared. I 
attach printscreen of it.

Best wishes,

Petr Brazda
