[random topaz]

[calm moon]

also from reading the logs, the first thing I noticed was bad auth: authentication failed, so make sure you have the correct connection string

[random topaz]

ahhh kk thanks how do i re ensure i do?

[calm moon]

where do you out the username and password for your database server? check that and make sure you typed the correct credentials

[random topaz]

i did

it’s on my .env file

[calm moon]

yes

https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/reference/connection-string/

[random topaz]

i pasted the database link and changed the <password> to my password

i deleted the <> as well

[calm moon]

[random topaz]

and i tried with it their

there*

as well

[calm moon]

i haven't worked on mongodb in years, hopefully someone else can chime in and help, or you can try on a mondodb or nodejs server

[random topaz]

okay thanks

sorry i forgot this was a java server

i’m a beginner so i’m getting em confused

sometimes

[calm moon]

i think if you can share the connection string, replacing the username and password with username and password, we can see if there's anything weird

[random topaz]

oh

okay i’ll share my screen once i’m home

[calm moon]

also, if I remember correctly atlas can generate the connection string, you can copy it directly from there in case you changed something

[random topaz]

will u be here in 2h or so

[random topaz]

ah

idk i’ve been working on this DB like all day so ima bit bummed atlas is kinda bugging

[calm moon]
