You cannot proceed without changing your password

Using an external database and implementing a password change option I get the following message"

You cannot proceed without changing your password, however there is no available page for changing it. Please contact your Moodle Administrator.

Clicking the docs link provides:

error/auth/nopasswordchangeforced (and searching the forums doesn't yield anything for this either)

When I click the continue button, the logon has taken place normally

When I change the admin authorization settings to indicate the page where users can change passwords it goes there whenever a (new) user tries to log on.

The error message does not appear to be generated by the moodle/auth/db/auth.php code.

Thanks if you can help.

Having re-tested the problem with a brand new user everything is behaving as it ought to now.

Possibly I did something bad like tried to change my password at the external site while logged on to moodle.

Ho hum.
