did you provide BETTER_AUTH_SECRET env or directly in the config?

I am also using svelte kit and I was able to have it working properly. Where are storing BETTER_AUTH_SECRET if you have it in .env.local or something try moving it to .env it might help. I can remember I was also facing a similar issue.

yes I did yes it is in the .env and I even tried putting it directly but it did not work I was just confused It worked when I paased it directly using the $nv from sveltekit It got fixed and I was looking at better auth not setting a cookie so I thought the secret could be the issue I logged the auth options and the secret was there Now I have resolved the cookie problem and it's working just fine
