WIFI_MODE_AP and authmode

[Jerson]

Hello i am a new comer in MCU programming.
I am trying to config the ESP32 as AP mode, i find the following error whenever the authmode is set as WIFI_AUTH_WPA_PSK or WIFI_AUTH_WPA2_PSK. The ESP32 just keep rebooting.

ESP_ERROR_CHECK failed: esp_err_t 0xb at 0x400feaa3
file: "C:/Users/Administrator/workspace_cpp/wifi_AP_test2/main/main.c" line 152
func: app_main
expression: esp_wifi_set_config(WIFI_IF_AP, &ap_config)
Backtrace: 0x40086e18:0x3ffb8ca0 0x40087185:0x3ffb8cc0 0x400feaa3:0x3ffb8ce0 0x400d0c0b:0x3ffb8dd0

I do have no problem when the authmode is set as WIFI_AUTH_OPEN or WIFI_AUTH_WEP [i.e. when it is not password protected]
Is WPA_PSK not supported in AP mode ? or i miss something else?

Sorry its due to the fact that a min 8-words PASSWORD is needed or it will have error.
Problem is solved
