Are you sure that you have a SCRAM password for this user in pg_authid
when it comes to 11.18? The default value of password_encryption (as
in postgresql.conf) has been changed from "md5" to "scram-sha-256" in
14 so it works out-of-the-box. When using server versions older than
14 that you need the extra step to set this parameter first, before
changing the password of a user.
