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

after extracting private key and rpc_url from ganache i am getting the error:

[paulcoffee85]

Mine worked without the 0x at front of the PRIVATE_KEY, also try at top instead of const fs = require("fs-extra"), use : const fs = require("fs")

[tiwariji99]

i tried as you suggested but i am still geting the same error
can u recommend any other thing??

[paulcoffee85]

Your = signs are missing in .env file
you need : PRIVATE_KEY=
Same for password and RPC_URL

thanks bruh i cant believe i wasted such long time with this basic error.

it happens a lot to many, the key is to search the error in "" , check spelling a lot and follow Patrick along in detail. Sometimes he quickly does something without pointing it out, so you have to really pay attention to his coding in the video.
