how to resolve this error:- Argument passed in must be a single String of 12 bytes or a string of 24 hex characters.

ProjectSubmit.findOne({'_id': ObjectId.createFromHexString(req.params.id)}).then((projectSubmit)=>{

res.render('main/proposal-des', {title: req.params.projectName, projectSubmit: projectSubmit});

// res.render('proposalList', { title: 'Synergy Proposal List'});

}, (e) => {

res.status(404).send(e);

});

Instead of converting req.params.id to an ObjectId try just passing in the string. That seems to be what it is expecting.

Also if this is mongoose and you're querying using the Model object then you can use findById. Your way isn't wrong and it will work fine but findById may be more readable.

ProjectSubmit.findById(req.params.id).then((projectSubmit)=>{

 res.render('main/proposal-des', {title: req.params.projectName, projectSubmit: projectSubmit});

}, (e) => {

  res.status(404).send(e);

});
