Are you trying to register a username that is not plain ASCII?

[osimons]

In a way this looks like an 'invalid' ticket as it seems to be directly related to th:AccountManagerPlugin, and the ticket should be registered there.

However, depending on the actual circumstances, it may also be a 'duplicate' of #6318 as there seems to be some issues with non-ascii logins.

To repeat Noah's question: Did the login contain non-ascii characters?

[cboos]

Eventually related to #6318 or #7325, but without the requested feedback it's hard to tell.
