Older versions have been removed from SchedMD website Due to a security vulnerability (CVE-2021-31215), all versions of Slurm prior to 20.11.7 or 20.02.7 are no longer available for download.

@vgamayunov
It did work with the 20.11.8 version.
After completion: I ran into this issue:

[hpcadmin@headnode ~]$ sinfo
sinfo: fatal: SallocDefaultCommand has been removed. Please consider setting LaunchParameters=use_interactive_step instead.
[hpcadmin@headnode ~]$ squeue
squeue: fatal: SallocDefaultCommand has been removed. Please consider setting LaunchParameters=use_interactive_step instead.
