**I’m getting this error on the terminal during the “Generate your app” step in forest admin.**

× Cannot connect to the database due to the following error:  
× {“name”:“SequelizeConnectionError”,“parent”:{“length”:98,“name”:“error”,“severity”:“FATAL”,“code”:“28000”,“file”:“miscinit.c”,“line”:“710”,“routine”:“InitializeSessionUserId”},“original”:{“length”:98,“name”:“error”,“severity”:“FATAL”,“code”:“28000”,“file”:“miscinit.c”,“line”:“710”,“routine”:“InitializeSessionUserId”}}

The database I’m using is taken from this source from “Add a data source” section: [Quick start - Developer guide](https://docs.forestadmin.com/developer-guide-agents-nodejs/getting-started/quick-start)

Hello @silad31207 👋 ,

I’m going to need more details. 🤔 What is the command you have launched for this step and what did you put in the URL database? Is this information correctly filled in?

Kind regards,

Florian
