Try editing security.properties and extending or turning off the
relevant password rules.  Re-start to see how it takes effect.

Editing the database directly is another option.  Let us know if you
need help with that.

In a pinch you can [stop Archiva and] delete the users database, but
you will have to re-add all the accounts and roles.
