ACCOUNTS_USERNAME_REGEX in config.py can't be overriden in invenio.cfg

I'm trying to change the username regex by overidding ACCOUNTS_USERNAME_REGEX in the invenio.cfg configuration file but it's not working . the default value is always applied .

You might want to check that you correctly rebuilt your instance if you modified your invenio.cfg to add ACCOUNTS_USERNAME_REGEX. I tested locally with a v11 services instance and the accounts regex worked. Our usernames do not match the InvenioRDM default regex so creating an instance failed while loading the users.yaml fixture but after editing invenio.cfg it completes.

Steps:

• edit new ACCOUNTS_USERNAME_REGEX into invenio.cfg
• invenio-cli destroy
• invenio-cli install --dev (--dev not necessary)
• invenio-cli services setup --no-demo-data <-- this failed previously
• invenio-cli run
