Hi @JulienGaladrim, Did you read the [migration note](https://docs.forestadmin.com/documentation/extra-help/maintain/upgrade-notes-sql-mongodb/upgrade-to-v7) and follow all the breaking changes migration guidelines? ---

Yes, we did follow the migration note, updated the app.js, forestadmin.js, indexs.js files and created the config/databases.js. ---

Hey @JulienGaladrim, Ok, let’s try to find the guilty thing. We need a bit more information to help you diagnose this issue. - Can you share your `APPLICATION_URL`? - Could you give me more context about your issue ( **Network tabs** of your browser, logs of your server if any, etc)? - Did you define a static `CLIENT_ID`? (_The whole part about static `CLIENT_ID` is not mandatory anymore._) Kind regards, Morgan ---

Sure : - My APPLICATION\_URL is [https://adminapp.interbev.fr](https://adminapp.interbev.fr) - The error I get is when trying to login is from the /sessions endpoint - I don’t think I have any CLIENT\_ID set up. ---

> [@JulienGaladrim](#): > > My APPLICATION\_URL is [https://adminapp.interbev.fr](https://adminapp.interbev.fr) That’s the URL for your **production** environment. 👀 - Did you try with a development environment first? > [@JulienGaladrim](#): > > The error I get is when trying to login is from the /sessions endpoint It tries to call the old endpoint. This **endpoint has been removed since the v7** so it’s a really weird behavior. I will double-check with the team. Morgan ---

We detected that your version is still outdated. - **Production version is 6.5.0** - **Development version is 6.5.0 too** Are you sure you synchronise the schemas? **You need to remove the `NODE_ENV=production` to make the synchronisation happen**. Let me know if it helps. 🙏 ---

Alright, this was the issue. Could you tell me why we had to remove the NODE\_ENV variable though ? ---

> [@JulienGaladrim](#): > > Could you tell me why we had to remove the NODE\_ENV variable though? Well, that is an issue that has been tackled on the latest versions of our agent (with more variables to control this behavior)… The idea is that the changes should not be done in production but should be done in development or a remote environment before going to production. This way **we ensure you don’t delete everything in production by mistake**. Let me know if you have any more questions. Kind regards, Morgan ---

I think we can close the issue, thank you a lot for your answers. Regards, Julien
