Error deleting invite:

Error message

Error deleting invite: 

What it means

DeleteInviteHandler calls db.DeleteInvite(inviteId, nil) after authorization; if that mutation fails it responds 500 'Error deleting invite: <err>'. The permission checks already passed, so this is purely a persistence-layer failure (the nil transaction argument means it runs outside an explicit transaction).

Solutions

  1. Check the server log for the exact DB error after 'Error deleting invite:'
  2. Retry the delete; if the invite was concurrently removed, the 404 path will tell you
  3. Verify DB health (locks, connectivity) and application user write privileges on invites
Defensive patterns

Strategy: retry

Validate before calling

if resp.StatusCode >= 500 {
	await sleep(backoff)
	// retry delete; a subsequent 404 means it was concurrently removed
}

Try / catch

try {
	await client.deleteInvite(inviteId)
} catch (e) {
	if (e.status >= 500) { await retryWithBackoff(() => client.deleteInvite(inviteId)); return }
	throw e
}

Prevention

When it happens

Trigger: DELETE /invites/{inviteId} when the DELETE statement fails: DB connection dropped, deadlock/lock timeout on the invites row, constraint violation, or the row disappeared concurrently between the GetInvite read and the delete.

Common situations: Database failover mid-request; concurrent deletion by another admin (row already gone, depending on driver error semantics); long-running transaction holding a lock on the invites table.
