error getting invite for org user: %v
Error message
error getting invite for org user: %v
What it means
After deleting the org user inside the same transaction, the handler looks up an active invite for the deleted user's email via db.GetActiveInviteByEmail. If that query errors (not 'no rows' — an actual failure), the tx is rolled back and the wrapped error is returned as HTTP 500.

Solutions
- Check the wrapped cause; distinguish real errors from sql.ErrNoRows (which is handled as nil invite).
- Verify DB connectivity and pool health.
- Confirm the invites table/migrations exist in the environment.
- Retry the deletion if the failure was transient (connection, context canceled).
Example fix
// before
invite, err := db.GetActiveInviteByEmail(auth.OrgId, auth.User.Email)
if err != nil { return fmt.Errorf("error getting invite for org user: %v", err) }
// after
invite, err := db.GetActiveInviteByEmail(auth.OrgId, auth.User.Email)
if errors.Is(err, sql.ErrNoRows) {
return nil
} else if err != nil {
return fmt.Errorf("error getting invite for org user: %v", err)
} Defensive patterns
Strategy: try-catch
Validate before calling
// Go
if err := db.PingContext(ctx); err != nil {
return fmt.Errorf("db unavailable: %w", err)
} Try / catch
invite, err := db.GetActiveInviteByEmail(auth.OrgId, auth.User.Email)
if errors.Is(err, sql.ErrNoRows) {
return nil // no invite; not an error
}
if err != nil {
return fmt.Errorf("error getting invite for org user: %v", err)
} Prevention
- Treat sql.ErrNoRows separately from real query errors.
- Keep invites schema migrations applied in all environments.
- Monitor DB health during user-management operations.
- Use contexts with sane timeouts for tx queries.
When it happens
Trigger: The invite lookup query fails: DB unreachable, connection pool exhaustion, SQL/schema error in the invites table, or cancellation of the request context mid-transaction.
Common situations: Database outage during user offboarding; invites schema migration missing; context canceled by client disconnect mid-tx (context canceled errors).
Understand the failure class
Background: Database query failed: Internal Server Error 500s wrapping SQL, Prisma, and connection failures — what to check first — this error's family across 16 libraries.
