Hi everyone,

When I run `npm run forestadmin:update-typings`, I encounter the following error on **Windows** and **WSL2 (Ubuntu)** environments:

```javascript
/home/artrack/projects/johndoe/forestadmin/node_modules/@forestadmin/datasource-mongoose/dist/mongoose/schema.js:107
        const [prefix, suffix] = path.split(/\.(.*)/);
                                      ^

RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded
    at String.split (<anonymous>)
    at MongooseSchema.getSubSchema (...)
    ...

```

This works fine on **macOS** using the same codebase, so the issue seems to be platform-specific.

### Environment:

- **Node.js** : v22.13.1
- **@forestadmin/forest-cloud** : `latest`
- **Running on** : macOS (works), Windows/WSL2 (fails)

Thanks in advance!

Hello @artpumpkin and welcome to the community!

Could I ask you to check the package.json in the repository for the `@forestadmin/datasource-mongoose` dependency, is the version `1.12.1` ? If it is, could you retry with version `1.12.0` after updating your node\_modules. Thanks

Hey Dogan,

Hey Alban,

Sorry for the late reply, after updating both `@forestadmin/forest-cloud` and `@forestadmin/datasource-mongoose` to their latest version, I got a different trace call:

```javascript
