Always msg.value = 0 no matter the value I send from frontend - Lesson 8

[isosatya]

I am working on the fullstack part and I seem to have everything running as it should:

• the correct ABI
• the correct locally deployed contract address
• an account with enough funds

I am calling the fund() function from the FundMe.sol contract

but when I console.log(msg.value) in the backend it keeps showing that the value is 0. So my transaction is reverted I am not able to fund the contract.

eth_call
  Contract call:       FundMe#<unrecognized-selector>
  From:                0xf39fd6e51aad88f6f4ce6ab8827279cfffb92266
  To:                  0xe7f1725e7734ce288f8367e1bb143e90bb3f0512

  console.log:
    msg.value   --> 0

I have tried changing the value sent in the frontend and it does not make a difference. It is like the frontend is somehow disconnected from the backend with regards to the value being sent.

My code is available here:

@isosatya What are you using to call the functions of smart contracts from the frontend? I need to see your frontend code, leave that repository as well.

Hi! As you can see in index.js I am calling the fund() function on the instance of the deployed contract:

contractAddress = "0xe7f1725E7734CE288F8367e1Bb143E90bb3F0512"

is actually the address of the contract I get deployed when I do yarn hardhat deploy

@isosatya It is working fine;

Sorry man, I do not know what I am doing wrong. I reseted the account. Restarted my laptop and VS Code many times but it just keeps reverting. Because as you can see, msg.value = 0.

At the end I said the minimum amount requirement to 0: MINIMUM_USD = 0 and seems to go through at least it is not reverting. But now I have to find a way what is the balance of the contract. I still believe it is not working. Why could it be that it keeps showing msg.send = 0? I also realized that when you get the eth_call section on your terminal, it says Contract call: FundMe#..... But for me it says Contract call: <UnrecognizedContract>. I think that is just not OK

@alymurtazamemon now it seems to work. I don´t understand I did not change anything. God this is crazy. But thanks for the heads up :D
