Hey everyone. I recently installed a new delta 500 shower pan and insert with an oatey no caulk drain. After testing I immediately noticed water stains downstairs in the ceiling so I cut a hole and saw the compression gasket was leaking. I pushed the pvc up a little higher and replaced the compression gasket and tightened down really tight and seem to have it in really good (precious shower pan also had one of these drains). But still noticed one small water drop after running the water for 10 minutes. Any advice?

*in the picture from the top view of drain I have gasket even farther down than that pic it’s slightly below the top of the pvc now.
