Mongoose error: “Topology was destroyed”, what’s the problem?

I was coding a leveling system for my discord bot, but encountered a mongoerror on the way, does anyone know why this is occuring? (The addXp function runs whenever someone chatted, the error is logged in the removeTimeout function.) I have used mongoose in many more ways in my code but this hasn’t yet occured before, I also did find others’ issues with this error but found no fitting solution there.

async function removeTimeout(leveldataid) {
    console.log("removetimeout")
    await mongo().then(async (mongoose) => {
        try {
            await levelSchema.findByIdAndUpdate(
                leveldataid,
                {
                    _id: leveldataid,
                    oncooldown: false
                },
                {upsert: true}
            )
        } catch(err) {
            console.log(err)
        } finally {
            mongoose.connection.close()
        }
    })


}

async function addXP(member, guild) {
    let data = undefined
    let changedleveldata = false
    await mongo().then(async (mongoose) => {
        try {
            data = await levelenabledSchema.findById(guild.id)
            if (data) {
                if (data.enabled == true) {
                    let extraxp = Math.floor(Math.random() *20) + 15
                    let leveldata = await levelSchema.findById(`guild${guild.id}member${member.id}`)
                    if (!leveldata) {
                        await levelSchema.findByIdAndUpdate(
                            `guild${guild.id}member${member.id}`,
                            {

                                oncooldown: true
                            },
                            {upsert: true}
                        )
                    } else {
                        if (leveldata.oncooldown == false) {
                            let newlevel = leveldata.level
                            let newMaxXp = leveldata.maxXp
                            newMaxXp = Math.floor(newMaxXp)
                            let xp = leveldata.xp

                            xp +=extraxp

                            if (xp > leveldata.maxXp) {
                                xp -=Math.floor(100*1.135**newlevel)
                                newlevel++
                                newMaxXp = 100*1.13**newlevel
                            }
                            await levelSchema.findByIdAndUpdate(
                                `guild${guild.id}member${member.id}`,
                                {
                                    level: newlevel,
                                    maxXp: newMaxXp,
                                    xp: xp,
                                    oncooldown: true
                                },
                                {upsert: true}
                            )
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
            changedleveldata = true
        } catch(err) {
            console.log(err)
        } finally {
            mongoose.connection.close()
        }
        if (changedleveldata == true) {
            setTimeout(remoteTimeout(`guild${guild.id}member${member.id}`), 60000)
        }
    })

}

Answer

This basically means the connection between node server and mongoDB was interrupted while writing data.

The solution to your problem would be to remove the finally block from your code because it interrupts the connection when the bot is being used by a lot of users and the bot tries to write data while a previous connection is being closed.

await mongo().then(async (mongoose) => {
    try { // code here 
    } catch(e) { console.log(e); } 
});
