I found that a password with the $ and @ character will not be accepted
as a character in the file.
I detected the issue by using the wpa_password command. If you enter a
passphrase with the illegal characters the output will be missing those
characters. In my case the password was myPassword66$@
I marked #172346 now as duplicate.
The problem is, that some special chars that depend on single laguages
make problems in passwords: öäüß (german) but also §.
Maybe wpasupplicant should check if the used special chars could make problems,
and allow only non-problematic special chars like !$%&/(
I found a similary bug : see number #172346
