Error: querySrv ENOTFOUND _mongodb._tcp.dbname.fzofb.mongodb.net

I'm learning Node.js and just started working with MongoDB.

I'm making a connection with the MongoDB Cluster I've created

const dbURI = 'mongodb+srv://testuser:[email protected]/mydb?retryWrites=true&w=majority';
mongoose.connect(dbURI, { useNewUrlParser: true, useUnifiedTopology: true })
    .then((result) => console.log('connected to db'))
    .catch((err) => console.log(err));

When I run it nodemon app I get this error:

Error: querySrv ENOTFOUND _mongodb._tcp.mydb.fzofb.mongodb.net at QueryReqWrap.onresolve [as oncomplete] (node:dns:206:19) { errno: undefined, code: 'ENOTFOUND', syscall: 'querySrv',
hostname: '_mongodb._tcp.mydb.fzofb.mongodb.net' }

The error indicates that there is no error in the code. This leaves you with three potential possibilities:

  1. Ensure you have MongoDB installed on your computer.
  2. Make sure you're connected to wifi that is not public.
  3. Make sure you have allowed the IP in network access of MongoDB as shown in the image below:

In my case, I was connected to public wifi in a coworking space. I change my connection to my personal hotspot and it worked.

I had the same issue. I was using the latest srv string. I don't know if this will help you. But using the olderve

mongodb://<username>:<password>@cluster0-shard-00-00.2pznz.mongodb.net:27017,cluster0-shard-00-01.2pznz.mongodb.net:27017,cluster0-shard-00-02.2pznz.mongodb.net:27017/myFirstDatabase?ssl=true&replicaSet=atlas-s5orlv-shard-0&authSource=admin&retryWrites=true&w=majority```
