Error When Deploying

[Benrockiee]

when i try to deploy, using this deploy script

const { ethers } = require("hardhat")
async function main() {
  const votingFactory = await ethers.getContractFactory("voting")
  console.log("deploying, please wait....")
  const voting = await votingFactory.deploy[
    "0x48656c6c6f20576f726c64210000000000000000000000000000000000000000"
  ]
  await voting.deployed()

  console.log(`contract deployed to :${voting.address}`)
}

main().catch((error) => {
  console.error(error)
  process.exitCode = 1
})

i get this Error looking like its coming from await voting.deployed()

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'deployed')
    at main (/home/solid-rugged/hardhat-ballot-voter/scripts/deploy.js:8:16)

I guess it should be

await voting.deploy()

[Benrockiee]

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'deploy')

[adityabhattad2021]

here

const votingFactory = await ethers.getContractFactory("voting")

I guess this should be

const votingFactory = await ethers.getContractFactory("Voting")

As you might have named your contract with v capital i.e. contract Voting{}

[Benrockiee]

nope, voting is the contracts name, not capital V

[krakxn]

It should be: await voting.deploy()

[Benrockiee]

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'deploy')

• Let's assume your contract's name is Xyz

const xyzContractFactory = await ethers.getContractFactory("Xyz")
xyzContract = await xyzContractFactory.deploy()
await xyzContract.deployed()

[Muhammad-Abdullah012]

const voting = await votingFactory.deploy(
    "0x48656c6c6f20576f726c64210000000000000000000000000000000000000000"  // Is it argument for contract, make sure all arguments are complete...
  );
await voting.deployed();

try,

 await voting.wait(1) //or 6 

from what I understand, you are trying to wait for block confirmations before continuing try 1 block conformations and 6 let me know thanks
this error comes when there is nothing to read from a method either deployed doesn't exist or you aren't pointing it correctly
