Describe the issue

Getting the following errors when trying to access req.auth inside of middleware, when middleware file is deleted this works without errors. I want to setup basic auth redirects.

I have updated next-auth-example template with my code to recreate error

Instead of a middleware i am currently using an HOC to check if session exists and redirect to auth screen, this is not ideal but works for now.

How to reproduce

• Clone repo and pnpm install
• Create env file as per .env.local.example
• Use npx drizzle-kit push to update supabase
• Attempt to sign in

Expected behavior

Authenticate user and redirect to home screen

Hi @Maisaan , please take a look at this:
https://authjs.dev/getting-started/migrating-to-v5#edge-compatibility

[Maisaan]

Yes, been over that. Afaik, DrizzleAdapter is edge compatible, and i wish to use the database strategy because i want to have a finer control over the users, with permissions and roles. When you lazy initialise or split configs you loose database functionality and thats not how i want it.

I encountered a similar error. I was able to resolve it after i removed the import of server side database interaction function from client side related hook. Hope this helps.

That's good news! Could you please show me how you did it? Thanks!

Hello @FabriBorgobello,

I uploaded a branch toShowError for you, here. Kindly look into it. Check /test page, here, later check searchUser route handler, here.

I was implementing search feature, had to interact with database. Instead of directly using the database function (which caused the error for me as shown below), which is supposed to be used server side rather than client side, I implemented an api handler for it that indirectly works with the database function.

Thanks a lot @xibluespider . I really appreciate it!
