Temporary Workaround Suggested:

export const worker = TanStackStart("web", {

});

cause worker error:

This would only happen if the app, stage or resource id has uppercase.

We should probably call toLower in createPhysicalName

But im confused - none of the provided examples have uppercase.

[john-royal]

Hey @manh21, can you let me know if #1257 fixes this? You can try it out using:

bun i https://pkg.pr.new/alchemy-run/alchemy@1257

[manh21]

@john-royal it seems pr #1257 fix the uppercase issues.

but i got another error from Worker

export const server = await Worker("server", {
	cwd: "apps/server",
	entrypoint: "src/index.ts",
	compatibility: "node",
	bindings: {
		DB: db,
		CORS_ORIGIN: process.env.CORS_ORIGIN || "",
		BETTER_AUTH_SECRET: alchemy.secret(process.env.BETTER_AUTH_SECRET || ""),
		BETTER_AUTH_URL: process.env.BETTER_AUTH_URL || "",
	},
	dev: {
		port: 3000,
	},
});

that error complaining about .alchemy/out/pemira-server-naufal/index.js:25802:33 being undefined,
that LOC contain

var __require = /* @__PURE__ */ createRequire(import.meta.url);

which indicate that import.meta.url being undefined

Reproduction Repo

[john-royal]

This appears to be a problem with better-auth, specifically version 1.4.6. Can you update your package.json to require better-auth 1.4.5 explicitly? That seemed to fix it for me in the repro you provided.

There's an issue tracking this in the better-auth repo: better-auth/better-auth#6690

{
  "name": "pemira",
  "private": true,
  "type": "module",
  "workspaces": {
    "packages": [
      "apps/*",
      "packages/*"
    ],
    "catalog": {
      "hono": "^4.10.8",
      "@trpc/server": "^11.5.0",
-      "better-auth": "^1.4.5",
+      "better-auth": "1.4.5",
      "dotenv": "^17.2.2",
      "zod": "^4.1.13",
      "alchemy": "^0.77.0",
      "@trpc/client": "^11.5.0",
      "@libsql/client": "^0.14.0",
      "libsql": "^0.5.22",
      "drizzle-orm": "^0.45.0"
    }
  },

[manh21]

Can confirm pining better-auth version to 1.4.5 fix the bundling issue.
Once PR #1257 is merged, we can close this issue.

[john-royal]

Addressed by #1268 which lowercases website names.

better-auth 1.4.7 should fix the other issue.
