Having issues with authentication

[gkupdx]

Hey there, first I just want to say thank you for providing this project as open source.

I've installed all the dependencies and when I enter "npm run dev", I run into the above issues.
I think it may have something to do with the MongoDB URI.
I copy+pasted the URI from your README.md and replaced only the password with my database admin password.

For the Mailtrap credentials, are the credentials supposed to be in quotes or no quotes? For example,
EMAIL_USERNAME = "abc123..." or EMAIL_USERNAME = abc123... ?

Any help would be appreciated!

@roopeshsn hey, sorry for pinging you like this but I'm still kinda stuck on what the problem is here

Have you created the cluster properly?

You have used this URI right? mongodb+srv://admin:<password>@cluster0.p2u97.mongodb.net/freshbey?retryWrites=true&w=majority

[gkupdx]

yes, and I replaced the with my database password

Don't use this URI. Copy the original connection URI from your cluster and use that.

ohhh wait I think I got it. I connected to localhost:5000 and I'm seeing this:
