Node-jsonwebtoken: Unable to verify JWT

[BarukhOr]

Attempts to verify a jwt (that was created using the same package result in a strange error that i cant decipher. Any help/insight into the matter would be much appreciated.

const jwt = require("jsonwebtoken");
const config = require("../config/index.js");

module.exports = {
    jwtLogin: function(req, res, next){
        "use strict";
        const token = req.headers.authorization || req.headers.Authorization;
        if (token){
            const decoded= jwt.verify(token, config.secret);
            console.log(decoded);
            next();
        }else{
            return res.status(403).send({
                success: false,
                message: "No token provided"
            });
        }
    }
};

The error in question:

Error
    at Object.module.exports [as verify] (.../node_modules/jsonwebtoken/verify.js:97:17)
    at jwtLogin (points to the line where verify is used)

Hello sir, let's try console.log in your jwt.verify'scallback

jwt.verify(token, config.secret', function(err, decoded) {
 if(err){
     console.log(err)
 }else{
     console.log(decoded)
 }
})

Sorry for the extended leave. As requested I added the callback function and decided to take a screenshot

In short

error:  { Error
    at Object.module.exports [as verify] (/home/utibe/Desktop/server_projects/api/node_modules/jsonwebtoken/verify.js:97:17)
    at jwtLogin (/home/utibe/Desktop/server_projects/api/controllers/authentication.js:171:32)

Note: i also ensured that the request for the secret is fullfilled. I've deleted node_modules a few times and started anew, and it seems to have had no effect.

This is the error raised: https://github.com/auth0/node-jsonwebtoken/blob/master/verify.js#L97
You can try in https://jwt.io to with one token and the secret you provide to the verify function, in case something funny is happening with the token or your secret.

BTW when you don't provide a callback the errors are raised via throw.
