# Server failure? Can't open projects...

Asked by sgorelik on 2025-12-12

Sorry for the alarming title, but my team can't open any projects. The platform will open and we can see the list of projects, but when we try to open a project we see the following error:

`"Cannot invoke \"clojure.lang.IFn.invoke(Object, Object)\" because \"is_authenticated_QMARK_\" is null"`

We have tested this on separate accounts and are seeing the same error, and we get this error on both private and public projects.

I am using Chrome and the developer console also reports:

`GET https://app.collect.earth/collection?projectId=56895 500 (Internal Server Error)`

Please let me know if you need any additional information. Thank you.
