Now I have done everything from all the github issues suggestions and also tried various other things.

  1. Whitelisted my IP.
  2. Changed DB users.
  3. Tried changing database types, ( sql, postgre)
  4. Made sure mongo is running in the backend.

Here are the contens of the log :

This is a complete new project, tried creating multiple new projects, still the same issue for all of them, even for new Atlas clusters/projects.
It just connects sometimes , and then doesn’t connect later. I have no idea how to go ahead as I am a beginner. Any kind of help will be appreciated.
I will keep on updating this with the Github Issues Links and other methods which I will try more.
