Better Auth•2w ago

cli generate not working: "Please run prisma generate"

Hi, I'm very new around better-auth and I need some help figuring out how to set it up properly. I have followed the instructions but for some reason I cannot seem to run the command npx @better-auth/cli generate. Gives me back an error that says "Please run "prisma generate" and try to import it again. However this has already been done and when I run the command it comes back to the same error.

these should help you, first what you should check is if you have a output set in the schema file https://www.prisma.io/docs/orm/prisma-client/setup-and-configuration/generating-prisma-client

Generating Prisma Client | Prisma Documentation

This page explains how to generate Prisma Client. It also provides additional context on the generated client, typical workflows and Node.js configuration.

Hmm is that a must have since I have a driver adapter setup like this

// schema.prisma
generator client {
  provider        = "prisma-client-js"
  previewFeatures = ["driverAdapters"]
}

datasource db {
  provider = "postgresql"
  url      = env("DATABASE_URL")
}

// schema.prisma
generator client {
  provider        = "prisma-client-js"
  previewFeatures = ["driverAdapters"]
}

datasource db {
  provider = "postgresql"
  url      = env("DATABASE_URL")
}

While I have your help could you explain to me how the server actions work with next js or do I have to create a new ticket for that?
