mongodb sharded cluster error 14037 - mongodb

Question

I'm creating a shared cluster following the official tutorial using three configuration servers, three server in the replica set and using a mongos client, but when i try to create a collection with
db.createCollection("XYZ")
I get
/* 1 */
{
"ok" : 0.0,
"errmsg" : "can't create user databases on a --configsvr instance",
"code" : 14037,
"codeName" : "Location14037"
}
My server status is
/* 1 */

What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Answering my own question and its really dummy the issue. The thing is that because config servers are a replica set the names between that replica set and shard replica set need to be unique, in my case where not and that cause the issue.
