Withdrawing funds from the deployed contracts

[chopperttt]

Im at lesson 9, and I was stuck at the Raffle.staging.test and so i deployed it multiple times to different contract addresses, and each tiem did a number of tests which will fund 0.01ETH to the contracts everytime. So is there anyway i can withrdaw these funds back to my metamask account? I know we're supposed to be able to withdraw once winner is selected but for some reason performUpkeep will not execute and i cant withdraw.

Also i've tried everyway possible i cant get the staging test to work due to "Error: Timeout of 50000ms exceeded.”

Maybe the 'const ' missing from line 34 in your staging test.:

raffleState = await raffle.getRaffleState()

oh my bad. 🤦‍♂️

I didn't see anything besides 'override' not in performUpkeep() , have you tried with it ? I'm also without sleep for a while now, so I might be forgetting some things

 function performUpkeep(
        bytes calldata /* performData */
    ) external override {

i tried this still doesnt work. then i saw on another thread to eliminate calling checkupkeep in performupkeep entirely and it worked. idk why though.

@AnneBBB Go here LINK and show me your History of events (specially see the failed requests tab to see what happened with your VRF request).

[chopperttt]

there are no events fired at vrf subcription and upkeep chainlink. no LINKs used

[chopperttt]

it cant even get pass the wait(1)

[chopperttt]

what about the funds stuck in these deployed broken contracts? how do i get them out?

[paulcoffee85]

Did you have any success with the funds and contract working now ?

[chopperttt]

the contracts that worked, from the solution i posted above (which I nor the original thread owner had any clue why and how it worked), the funds were retrieved. but for the other deployed contracts, the funds were still stuck
