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
- Check the server log for the exact DB error after 'Error deleting invite:'
- Retry the delete; if the invite was concurrently removed, the 404 path will tell you
- 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
- Make deletes idempotent: treat 404 after a 500 retry as success
- Keep DB lock timeouts reasonable; avoid long transactions on invites
- Monitor DB write errors and failover events
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.
