hey i am trying to follow along with this youtube tutorial.
If I sign up a user, the user gets saved on appwrite in the auth and database section but i am not redirect to the logged in page and i dont get an user session cookie token (cookieFallback) in the local storage.
The code is absolutely the same from the tutorial.

in the console i got a 401 error.

Summary

User is following a YouTube tutorial to create a social media app using JSM. After signing up a user, the user is not redirected to the logged-in page and there is no user session cookie token in the local storage. Console shows a 401 error. Another user suggested disabling one of the lines in the useEffect, specifically `cookieFallback === null ||`. The original user tried the suggestion but it didn't solve the issue. Another user suggested adding a console log before the `navigate("/sign-in")` line in the useEffect. Another user insists that their code is correct and the issue may be that the useEffect is not being triggered.

It's the use effect, you have to disable one of the lines. I forget which one

Are you missing one line?

Hold up

 useEffect(() => {
    const cookieFallback = localStorage.getItem("cookieFallback");
    if (
      cookieFallback === "[]" ||
      cookieFallback === null ||
      cookieFallback === undefined
    ) {
      navigate("/sign-in");
    }

    checkAuthUser();
  }, []);

I believe the line that was causing me issues was, cookieFallback === null ||

Can you put a console.log(I'm here) before the navigate("/sign-in")?

Keep my code, because it's the correct one

I'm not sure if your useEffect is being triggered, because it's not creating a cookie for you

Can you delete your auth/user, restart your dev env, and try again
