Migration from 3.0.6 to 3.1.1 caused custom user controllers error: Error creating endpoint post /users: handler not found

[andylacko]

Hello, when updated to 3.1.1, server does not start, this is as much info as I discovered

Describe the bug

this is how my api/user/controllers/user.js looks like

'use strict';

module.exports = {
  getUser: async ctx => {
    ctx.send('controlled by GraphQl')
  },
  getPortalSession: async ctx => {
    ctx.send('controlled by GraphQl')
  },
}

after upgrading to 3.1.1 can't start server, error

Error creating endpoint post /users: handler not found "user.create"

is shown also when cleaned cache. It seems like it's not extending the object, but replacing with custom defined by me

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. npx strapi generate:controller user
2. create custom controller function
3. run server

Expected behavior

to run server and be able to set permissions in admin

System

• Node.js version: 14.6.0
• NPM version: 6.14.7
• Strapi version: 3.1.1
• Database: sqlite
• Operating system: Mac Os

Node.js version: 14.6.0

Please downgrade your node version to the latest supported LTS (v12) and test again

downgraded to v12.18.3, still error Error creating endpoint post /users: handler not found "user.create" shows, no difference

Thank you for reporting this issue. Related to the API name probable - conflicting with the User model in the Users & Permissions plugin I guess.

@alexandrebodin Can you please confirm it's related to that.
I can confirm it was possible before.
Should we convert this as an issue @alexandrebodin ?

[alexandrebodin]

@andylacko do you have a routes.json file to share ?

[andylacko]

@alexandrebodin , I have no routes.json file inside user/config folder, we only use graphQl

[alexandrebodin]

OK @andylacko I can make a fix for this issue but I would still recommend you rename the controller to my-user.js to avoid any conflict with the admin users :)

oh nice, I see what you mean, will rename it 👌
