TD12 Enthusiast,

You got the "Create UDF user - PasswordTooShort" error during the Teradata database installation, because the password security settings for your Windows XP system require a minimum password length greater than 10 characters. If you decrease the minimum required password length to 10, then the Teradata database will install OK. If you can't change your password security settings, then you need to create a "tdatuser" user with a password that passes your security requirements. Then create a "tdatudf" group and add the tdatuser user to this group. Then the Teradata database will install OK. To compile UDFs you will need to use "create authorization" SQL.
