NestJS/MongoDB Auth not working after deployment via docker compose

Basically, mongo-auth via rootUser/created user works fine locally, but fails on my server after deployment via Coolify/Dokploy Here is my docker compose file:

version: '3.8'
services:
  mongodb-dev:
    image: mongo:latest
    container_name: mongodb-dev
    restart: always
    # env_file: ${ENV_FILE:-.env}
    environment:
      MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME: ${MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME}
      MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD: ${MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD}
      MONGO_INITDB_DATABASE: ${MONGO_INITDB_DATABASE}
    ports:
      - '27017:27017'
    volumes:
      - mongodbdata:/data/db
      - ./mongo-init.js:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/mongo-init.js:ro //This should be executed by Mongo during startup
    networks:
      - my-network

  my-nest-backend:
    build: .
    container_name: my-nest-backend
    ports:
      - '${PORT}:${PORT}'
    depends_on:
      - mongodb-dev
    networks:
      - my-network
    # env_file: ${ENV_FILE:-.env}
    environment:
      DATABASE_NAME: ${DATABASE_NAME}
      DATABASE_USER: ${DATABASE_USER}
      DATABASE_PASS: ${DATABASE_PASS}
      MONGODB_HOST: ${MONGODB_HOST}
      NODE_ENV: ${NODE_ENV}
      PORT: ${PORT}
      MONGO_URI: mongodb://${DATABASE_USER}:${DATABASE_PASS}@${MONGODB_HOST}:27017/${DATABASE_NAME}?authSource=admin&directConnection=true
    command: npm run start:debug

volumes:
  mongodbdata:

networks:
  my-network:
    driver: bridge

NestJS:

@Module({
  imports: [
    ConfigModule.forRoot({ isGlobal: true }),
    MongooseModule.forRootAsync({
      useFactory: async () => {
        const logger = new Logger('MongooseModule');
        const uri = process.env.MONGO_URI;

        try {
          // Establish a MongoDB connection with the provided URI
          return {
            uri,
            useNewUrlParser: true,
            useUnifiedTopology: true
          };
        } catch (error) {
          logger.error(`MyLog Failed to connect to MongoDB: ${error.message}`, error.stack);
          throw error; // Rethrow to prevent app from starting with bad DB connection
        }
      },
    }),
    QuoteModule,
    PhilosopherModule,
    AuthModule,
  ],
  controllers: [AppController],
  providers: [AppService],
})
export class AppModule implements OnModuleInit {
  private readonly logger = new Logger(AppModule.name);

  async onModuleInit() {
    this.logger.log('MyLog AppModule initialized');
  }
}

Fail without any details:

MongoServerError: Authentication failed.
