error creating invite: %v

Error message

error creating invite: %v

What it means

Inside the CreateInviteHandler transaction, db.CreateInvite fails to insert the invite row, aborting the tx. Duplicate/invite-already-exists is pre-checked; this is a DB-level insert failure (constraint, connection).
