Mongoose?

Sorry i thought it got deleted. yes, moongose

what error are you getting

errorResponse: {
ok: 0,
errmsg: 'Authentication failed.',
code: 18,
codeName: 'AuthenticationFailed'
},
ok: 0,
code: 18,
codeName: 'AuthenticationFailed',
connectionGeneration: 0,
[Symbol(errorLabels)]: Set(2) { 'HandshakeError', 'ResetPool' }

that's when using the public one on my own machine (works without the db name chained and just goes to test) i'm not sure that was the exact same error the internal one was omitting, ive settled on just using the test db, but kinda anoyying

you are likely using the mongoose client incorrectly, please see the docs -

you probably want to be specifying the database name as options.dbName not in the url

Ill give it a shot, it's just that it always worked for me using atlas with mongoose and is a mongo thing

as far as I know, specifying the database in the url is Atlas specific

yeah that works, probably did a really bad job searching google for that "problem"

thank you

no problem!
