Problem to change site url's in SharePoint admin center

Since a short time ago, I cannot change the url for some sites. I know that sites that are hub-sites, or connected to a hub, can not be changed unless the are released from the hub. It only seems to affect sites linked to a 365 group. 


I get almost the standard message, when trying to change url, but with the exception of this text:
"Some features may not work after you change this location address. Do you want to continue? The site has a Business Connectivity Services (BCS) connection. The connection may need to be re-established after you change the location address."

 

Anyone having the same problem or know how I can fix this?

    I experienced this same issue recently. I was able to change the URL by using PowerShell: see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/sharepoint-online/start-spositerename?view=sharepoint-ps.
