Hello.
Try another way:
Login to the DCUI (to enable the ESXi Shell if not already done) Login with root and the correct password. Go to Troubleshooting Options Select Enable ESXi Shell
Press CTRL+ALT+F1 At the ESXi shell login with root and the password Run the following commands to show number of failed attempts:
pam_tally2 --user root
Post your result
If you succeed to login you can also try to change the password
you should get something like this

The character classes are:
Lowercase letters
Uppercase letters
Numbers
Special characters (e.g. _ or -)
