Appropriate coordinates for a given electric field

[kirito]

TL;DR Summary

I was facing a problem where I have an electric field and I have to find the charge density , I noticed that the field outside is that of a dipole and because I decided to use spherical coordinates and reached an appropriate answer yet using divergence in cylindrical lead me to different outputs

this is the field I was provided
and this is the charge density that I have reached

I tried to use this yet the output was different
I also used Cartesian it gave me the same output as the spherical ones

The value of the divergence of a field at a point is independent of the coordinate system. So, if you get zero in spherical coordinates you should also get zero in cylindrical coordinates.

thats actually why I even made this post , I got weirded out by the calculation using cylindrical coordinates since there is no component in the theta direction whereas the z results in 0 and the component in the r direction results in something other than zero unless I had to do something to the coordinates I changed from cylindrical to spherical so changed the z hat appropriately in the first case I may have missed something but got no clue what it may be

What is the divergence in cylindrical (or spherical) coordinates? Hint: it is not the same as for Cartesian replacing variable names.
