nodejs/express - cannot load routes using passport

I am trying to use passport to add user sessions on my webapp. I have configure my main js file as follow:

 /**
 * Module dependencies.
 */
var express     = require('express');
var user        = require('./server/routes/user');
var routes      = require('./server/routes/index');
var http        = require('http');
var path        = require('path');
var app         = express();
var passport    = require('passport');
var flash       = require('connect-flash');

require('./server/config/passport')(passport); // pass passport for configuration

// all environments
app.set('port', process.env.PORT || 3000);
app.set('views', path.join(__dirname, 'views'));
app.set('view engine', 'ejs');
app.use(express.favicon());
app.use(express.logger('dev'));
app.use(express.json());
app.use(express.urlencoded());
app.use(express.methodOverride());
app.use(app.router);
app.use(require('stylus').middleware(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));

app.configure(function(){
    // required for passport
    app.use(express.session({ secret: 'ilovesefounders' })); // session secret
    app.use(passport.initialize());
    app.use(passport.session()); // persistent login sessions
    app.use(flash()); // use connect-flash for flash messages stored in session
})


// routes ======================================================================
require('./server/routes/index')(app, passport); // load our routes and pass in our app and fully configured passport
routes.mount(app);

However when i try to launch it I get the following error:

require('./server/routes/index')(app, passport); // load our routes and pass i
                                ^
TypeError: object is not a function

What's going wrong here?

I don't know how your index.js looks like but you probably did not export your function module.

Check if index.js looks something like this:

module.exports = function(app, passport) {
    /* code */
};

And you don't need to require "./server/routes/index" again.
