Tell us what’s happening:
I am having a problem connecting to my database (using Glitch):
I will add my code to see if that can help you help me:
.env fil:
I have added a variable MONGO_URI to that file (using the Glitch method for doing this) with a value: ‘mongodb+srv://MongoGerry:@cluster0.uawkdwq.mongodb.net/fcc-mongodb-and-mongoose?retryWrites=true&w=majority’

In your Glitch code, you have the password in brackets <> which I’m guessing isn’t how you made the password. The brackets are just symbols used in the docs for placeholders.

So it should be YourPassword not <YourPassword>

You should really use the .env file so you do not leak your connection string. I would create a new password after you have removed it from your code.
