Error: ApolloServer<BaseContext>' is not assignable to type 'ApolloServer<ExpressContext>

Issue Description

Type 'Promise<{ my_apolloServer: ApolloServer; my_httpServer: Server<typeof IncomingMessage, typeof ServerResponse>; }>' is not assignable to type 'Promise<{ apolloServer: ApolloServer; httpServer: Server<typeof IncomingMessage, typeof ServerResponse>; }>'.
Type '{ my_apolloServer: ApolloServer; my_httpServer: http.Server<typeof http.IncomingMessage, typeof http.ServerResponse>; }' is not assignable to type '{ my_apolloServer: ApolloServer; my_httpServer: Server<typeof IncomingMessage, typeof ServerResponse>; }'.
Types of property 'my_apolloServer' are incompatible.
Type 'ApolloServer' is not assignable to type 'ApolloServer'.
Type 'BaseContext' is missing the following properties from type 'ExpressContext': req, rests(2322)
const my_server_instance: Promise<{
my_apolloServer: ApolloServer;
my_httpServer: http.Server;
}>
I wanted to upgrade Apolloserver from ver3 to ver 4. Following documentation:

Two types in apollo-server-express now have more explicit names exported from @apollo/server/express4. GetMiddlewareOptions is now ExpressMiddlewareOptions and ExpressContext is now ExpressContextFunctionArgument. Ref: https://www.apollographql.com/docs/apollo-server/migration/

It looks like your types are incompatible based on the error:

Type 'Promise<{ my_apolloServer: ApolloServer; my_httpServer: Server<typeof IncomingMessage, typeof ServerResponse>; }>' is not assignable to type 'Promise<{ apolloServer: ApolloServer; httpServer: Server<typeof IncomingMessage, typeof ServerResponse>; }>'.

The my_ prefix you're using is incompatible. Can you provide a reproduction or a code snippet at the very least?

@trevor-scheer I added those pre-fixes purposefully when i was posting here, those do not exist in the code.

I have tried to to use the type everywhere, just like a hack to get through this. But I am not happy with it.

I stumbled into a gateway problem, later #7828
