error while connecting to database TypeError: Invalid URL in Mongo DB

Question

When I am trying to connect mongo db cluster with my application it is showing this error

I am using URL for Node.js driver of version 2.2.12 or higher

Here is the code of my db.js file

import mongoose from 'mongoose'; //mongoose library is used to form connection between your application and your database mongodb could also be used for the same

const Connection = async () => {
  const URL = `mongodb://chirag_79:[email protected]:27017,ac-jqvhtzt-shard-00-01.nt4mr7j.mongodb.net:27017,ac-jqvhtzt-shard-00-02.nt4mr7j.mongodb.net:27017/?ssl=true&replicaSet=atlas-mbzzwi-shard-0&authSource=admin&retryWrites=true&w=majority`;
  try {
    await mongoose.connect(URL, { useNewUrlParser: true }); //connect function takes two arguments one is the URL and another one is to save us from the error of old urlParser being deprecated
    //old URL parser is deprecated so we will use a new URL parser
    console.log('database connected successfully');
  } catch (error) {
    console.log(`error while connecting to database ${error}`);
  }
};

export default Connection;

Here is the URL to my mongo db cluster: mongodb://chirag_79:[email protected]:27017,ac-jqvhtzt-shard-00-01.nt4mr7j.mongodb.net:27017,ac-jqvhtzt-shard-00-02.nt4mr7j.mongodb.net:27017/?ssl=true&replicaSet=atlas-mbzzwi-shard-0&authSource=admin&retryWrites=true&w=majority

Answer 1

The issue was in the password

if you'll use special characters as the password and pass them as it is in the URL then it will create issues.

I changed my password and the problem got fixed.
