[SOLVED] "mongooseUri" must be a valid uri
Update:
Looks like a problem with another npm module.
Attempting to connect to a MongoDB set, but getting message that the URI is invalid.
[Error [ValidationError]: "mongooseUri" must be a valid uri] {
_original: {
mongooseOptions: { useNewUrlParser: true, useUnifiedTopology: true },
mongooseUri: 'mongodb://USERNAME:PASSWORD@lin-aaaa-xxxx.servers.linodedb.net:27017,lin-bbbb-yyyy.servers.linodedb.net:27017,lin-cccc-zzzz.servers.linodedb.net:27017/DATABASE?replicaSet=RS-abdc-99&ssl=true'
},
details: [

path: [ 'mongooseUri' ],
type: 'string.uri',
context: {
label: 'mongooseUri',
value: 'mongodb://USERNAME:PASSWORD@lin-aaaa-xxxx.servers.linodedb.net:27017,lin-bbbb-yyyy.servers.linodedb.net:27017,lin-cccc-zzzz.servers.linodedb.net:27017/DATABASE?replicaSet=RS-abdc-99&ssl=true',
key: 'mongooseUri'
}
}
]
}
The username/password/database don't contain any special characters. I didn't see anything reported with Mongoose. The format is a valid MongoDB connection string, so I'm at a loss. Any thoughts?

Comma (,) is an invalid character in URIs. It appears that your use of it is as a continuation character. I suggest you crack open your trusty python manual and see what the approved continuation character for multiline strings is.
I don't know anything about python…I've only inferred this from the data you posted. I could be way out in the weeds…

You're reading the code block wrong. Those are single-quoted strings, and the markdown style is line-breaking on the , for display. I'm not doing that.
