Changing password results in 500 error

When we try to change a user's password in Archiva 1.3.5, we get a 500 page and the password isn't changed.  If I google on this I can find many others running into the same issue, going several years back, but I haven't been able to find a good solution.  I even found the following jira from 2009 (Archiva 1.2), which is still listed as Unresolved.  Any idea how we can get past this?

https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRM-1187

Below is the top of the stack trace.

Thanks,
David

Can you upgrade to last 1.4.x ?
Because I'm not sure we will fix issues for 1.3.x (except security issues)
