Mongoose model not registered
Schema hasn't been registered.*model|MissingSchemaError
Fixes
- 1.Register the model with mongoose.model('Name', schema) before referencing it
- 2.Check circular imports — model file may not have executed before reference
- 3.Ensure model registration runs at app startup, not lazily inside functions
