issue getting session using mongodb

the login buttons work and i looking at the collection on mongodb it was able to insert the data, but when i try to check for a session on /dashboard using:

auth.api.getSession({
  headers: await headers()
})

auth.api.getSession({
  headers: await headers()
})

i get the following error:

 ERROR   INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR Invalid id value                                                                                             Better Auth

tried turning on advanced.generateId to false

could you share your schema and your auth config

RayOP•5mo ago

i dont have a custom schema

// auth.ts
import { betterAuth } from "better-auth";
import { mongodbAdapter } from "better-auth/adapters/mongodb";
import { db } from "@/lib/mongo";
 
export const auth = betterAuth({
    database: mongodbAdapter(db),
    socialProviders: {
        twitter: {
            clientId: process.env.TWITTER_CLIENT_ID!,
            clientSecret: process.env.TWITTER_CLIENT_SECRET!,
        },
        linkedin: {
            clientId: process.env.LINKEDIN_CLIENT_ID!,
            clientSecret: process.env.LINKEDIN_CLIENT_SECRET!
        }
    },
    user: {
        deleteUser: {
            enabled: true
        }
    },
    advanced: {
        generateId: false,
    }
});

import { betterAuth } from "better-auth";

if you're using mongodb adapter don't disable generateID

RayOP•5mo ago

i get the error both with or without the generateid anything else i could try?

bekacru•5mo ago

by any chance do you already have data in your db?

RayOP•5mo ago

i mean the login buttons work and adds the information to the db but then when it does the call back to /dashboard i get the internal server error and any future reloads with any data in the db and session cookie

bekacru•5mo ago

so getSession is failing?

RayOP•5mo ago

yes

bekacru•5mo ago

could you try to reset the db and check if it works?

RayOP•5mo ago

new db? yeah sure

bekacru•5mo ago

yeah. invlaid id is thrown from better auth when the id couldnt be converted to string or back to ObjectId

RayOP•5mo ago

tried on a new db and same issue

 ERROR   INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR Invalid id value                                                                                           Better Auth
