I'm unable to change the password for the joomla admin from anything other than the default.
it trows a

tr: Illegal byte sequence.

(captured this using screen recording when the screen momentarily flashes to the script before giving the error.

The error is causing the issue. The fact i entered a password shorter than 12 chars was. To silence the error if you add this line
at 4013 just after opening the function setJoomlaPassword() {

  export LC_ALL=C

it will prevent this error from happening. Also the text should say more than 11 chars ;) from 12 chars and more it is accepted

setting the locale is what chatGPT suggested to me as to prevent this error from happening.
