@gpicazo I tried creating a new mlab db and was unable to replicate your issue. However I'm using macOS instead of windows so that could be the issue.

Have you tried starting your server and testing the endpoints through the swagger UI? If all is working you should be able to create a user manually.

@gpicazo did you ever figure this out? I'm having the same issue with an mlab account.

Edit: I'm dumb my URI was actually missing the password.
