recently I updated a moodle site from 2.6.7 to 2.9.1.
The moodle itself runs quit fine, but user can't change their passwords anymore.
I checked the roles settings: ("moodle/user:changeownpassword = Allow")
its like it should be.
Where can I check else?

See https://docs.moodle.org/29/en/Preferences
Now you have a specific page to change password access: yourmoodle/user/preferences.php chmagepassword
User account Links here allow users to edit their profile information and change their password, specify how they wish to receive forum and other notifications, choose a text editor (if allowed) and view/reset their RSS token.

Issue was that the old theme hide the new profile window.
My workaround is to create a simple link, to /login/change_userpassword.php inside menu.

You can download a local plugin called "local_resetpasswordmoodleversion...zip" install it. Make sure you enabled the plugin in its settings. After all when you go to user preferences you will find the change password activities as shown in the imageenter image description here
