`postgres` user password does not match the `OPERATOR_PASSWORD` secret

After the network issue yesterday, I restarted my machines and started noticing this error in the postgres logs (I don’t know if this is new or has always been logging this warning)

My app works fine and I can connect with pgadmin. no issues there. Just wondering what is this.

I tried updating the OPERATOR_PASSWORD secret as suggested, but that didn’t solve it.
