Error: data must be a string or Buffer and salt must either be a salt string or a number of rounds

[LishuGupta652]

It took me a while to figure out while this error was comming up. I tried to fix and searched a lot and finally came up with the solution that the salt created with bcrypt.gensalt(10) returned a string value but when i input the salt in bcrypt.hash(pass, salt) it required me to input the salf as integer

final solution should be using salt as a intenger bcrypt.hash(pass, parseInt(salt))

Just use bcrypt.hash(pass, 10)

[DamithaPerera]

This works for me.

let pass= pass.toString(); bcrypt.hash(pass, 10);

[saintgabriel0]

This also works.

let pass= pass.toString(); bcrypt.hash(pass, parseInt(salt));
