When logging in with OAuth, bad password results in "Invalid grant" as error #1336

Description

@mraible

I'm using the Stormpath Angular SDK with Spring Boot Stormpath Starter version 2.0.0-okta-rc1. If I enter a bad password, the error message is "Invalid grant" rather than "Invalid username or password.".

invalid-grant

You can reproduce this problem using HTTPie. The following will work.

http -f POST localhost:8080/oauth/token grant_type=password username=VALID_USERNAME password=CORRECT_PASSWORD

This does not:

http -f POST localhost:8080/oauth/token grant_type=password username=VALID_USERNAME password=BAD_PASSWORD
