Database Connection Offline
We are unable to establish a connection to the MongoDB database. This usually means that your local IP address is not whitelisted on MongoDB Atlas, or your database server is offline.
How to resolve:
- Whitelist your IP on Atlas: Log in to your MongoDB Atlas Console, navigate to "Network Access", and add your current public IP address or set it to allow access from anywhere (
0.0.0.0/0). - Check your environment configuration: Ensure the
MONGODB_URIenvironment variable inside your.env.localfile is correct. - Use local MongoDB: If you have MongoDB installed locally, you can change the connection string to
mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/shoplink.
