Lesson 5: Error: missing revert data in call exception

[ghost]

Hi everyone. Right now I'm on Lesson 5 (7:30:00).
When trying to deploy deploy.js I get many errors in the console. The first line is:

Error: missing revert data in call exception; Transaction reverted without a reason string

I was following the course and just double-checked my code with Patrick's, both deploy.js and SimpleStorage.sol
I hate putting a lot of code in my questions, but since I can't determine the place of the issue happening, it's the only way.

The full error message:

I forgot to start a new session of Ganache (my blockchain was running but was not related to my code)
