Schema Error while running backend server nestjs/angular

I finally came here after putting lot of efforts but no success. I learn Nestjs/Angular/MongoDB. So far I got success running both Angular server & Nestjs server simaltaneously. But I get huge list of errors 147 (mostly related to schema) when I initialize mongoDB with them. Everything seems fine, connection between mongdb compass & atlas work perfectly.
grateful for your advise

following an error.

I had the same error into Typescript + Express + Mongoose application. Try adding skipLibCheck: true option to your tsconfig.json. I found the solution here, it is was published just 2 days ago: https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped/issues/33290#issuecomment-740513790

Also you don’t need to use @types/mongoose since mongoose 5.11 was published with its own type definitions. Hope it helps. Typescript Schema definition is incorrect · Issue #9606 · Automattic/mongoose · GitHub
