Invalid Compact JWE

Question

Hi, I'm following this template (https://github.com/vercel/nextjs-planetscale-nextauth-tailwindcss-template), using a mongodb provider, but I'm getting this error all the time when I try to sign in, and even though I can see my account, sessions and stuff in the db, I can see them logged when I active debug: true, but I'm never "signed in", and i'm getting this error..
I really don't know what to do now.

export const authOptions: NextAuthOptions = {
  jwt: {
    secret: process.env.NEXTAUTH_SECRET as string,
  },
  adapter: MongoDBAdapter(clientPromise, {
      collections: {
        Accounts: 'webaccounts',
        Sessions: 'websessions',
        Users: 'webusers',
        VerificationTokens: 'webverificationtokens',
      },
      
      databaseName: 'webauth',
  }) as Adapter,
  providers: [
    GithubProvider({
      clientId: process.env.GITHUB_ID as string,
      clientSecret: process.env.GITHUB_SECRET as string,
    }),
  ],
  session: {
    strategy: 'jwt', //'database' will give me Invalid JWE
  }
};I figured out that, when putting "database" as a strategy, I get this error, but when I check the websessions collection, I can see a session document with a sessionToken..Should I just stick to jwt then ? and not saving them in db ?
