I am new to MERN. I was using this code below . I followed a youtube tutorial and it was working fine for me for 4 to 5 days but now suddenly it has stopped working. I didn't change anything. I am not able to login, logout or even fetch data. My postman is giving positive results using these api but it won't work on my code. I want to remind you guys again, it was working fine for 4 to 5 days.
const User = require("../model/user");
const bcrypt = require("bcryptjs");
const jwt = require("jsonwebtoken");
const signup = async (req, res, next) => {
const { fname, lname, email, password, role, phone } = req.body;
let existingUser;
try {
existingUser = await User.findOne({ email: email });
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
if (existingUser) {
return res.status(400).json({ message: "user already exists" });
}
const hashedPassword = bcrypt.hashSync(password);
const user = new User({
fname,
lname,
email,
password: hashedPassword,
phone,
role,
});
try {
await user.save();
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
return res.status(201).json({ message: user });
};
const login = async (req, res, next) => {
const { email, password } = req.body;
let existingUser;
try {
existingUser = await User.findOne({ email: email });
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
if (!existingUser) {
return res
.status(400)
.json({ message: "user doesn't exist. Please signup" });
}
const isPasswordCorrect = bcrypt.compareSync(password, existingUser.password);
if (!isPasswordCorrect) {
return res.status(401).json({ message: "invalid email or password" });
}
const token = jwt.sign({ id: existingUser._id }, "change1122", {
expiresIn: "1h",
});
res.cookie(String(existingUser._id), token, {
path: "/",
expires: new Date(Date.now() + 1000 * 3600),
httpOnly: true,
sameSite: "lax",
});
return res
.status(200)
.json({ message: "user logged in sucessfully", user: existingUser, token });
};
const verifyToken = (req, res, next) => {
const cookies = req.headers.cookie;
const token = cookies.split("=")[1];
if (!token) {
res.status(404).json({ message: "no token found" });
}
jwt.verify(String(token), "change1122", (err, user) => {
if (err) {
return res.status(404).json({ message: "invalid token" });
}
req.id = user.id;
});
next();
};
const getUser = async (req, res, next) => {
const id = req.id;
let user;
try {
user = await User.findById(id, "-password");
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
if (!user) {
res.status(404).json({ message: "user not found with the id" });
}
return res.status(200).json({ user });
};
const logout = async (req, res, next) => {
const cookies = req.headers.cookie;
console.log(cookies);
const token = cookies.split("=")[1];
if (!token) {
res.status(404).json({ message: "no token found" });
}
const user = req.id;
res.clearCookie(`${user}`);
req.cookies[`${user}`] = "";
return res.status(200).json({ message: "successfully logged out" });
};
exports.signup = signup;
exports.login = login;
exports.verifyToken = verifyToken;
exports.getUser = getUser;
exports.logout = logout;
Here is the error

I think i have an issue with cookies or token, I am new so i don't understand it properly.
