Can't deploy to network sepolia

[alex81983]

I am trying to deploy the smart contract lottery to the sepolia testnet but when I run the command I get this error. Not sure what it means because I have it in my folders. Heres my repo. https://github.com/alex81983/smart-contract-lottery On another note how do I push my repo without showing my .env? I put it in .gitignore and it still showed up on the repo.

Error: Cannot find module '/html-fund-me-fcc/hardhat-smartcontract-lottery-fcc/deploy'

Which commands you used to deploy it?

1- The code is fine, I deployed the contract at 0x39541D9E555732996C5B29cd2E69AceBfb29E3eD
and you have issue with verify that's not defined.

2- after putting .env into .gitignore, run git init command, it will not included next time you'll commit and push the files, but if you push the files I don't know how to deal with that.

I'm also getting "deploying "Raffle" insufficient funds for intrinsic transaction cost". I don't know why. I have enough ETH and LINK in my VRF subscription.

I used the command yarn hardhat deploy --network sepolia. How can I fix the issue with my verify? Is it in my deploy scripts? Thanks for the git init command. I'll use that from now on.

You can fix the issue by define the Verify script by creating it, like this:

const { run } = require("hardhat");

const verify = async (contractAddress, args) => {
  console.log("Verifying contract...");
  try {
    await run("verify:verify", {
      address: contractAddress,
      constructorArguments: args,
    });
  } catch (e) {
    if (e.message.toLowerCase().includes("already verified")) {
      console.log("Already Verified!");
    } else {
      console.log(e);
    }
  }
};
module.exports = { verify };

then import it to your deploy script.

I'm also getting "deploying "Raffle" insufficient funds for intrinsic transaction cost". I don't know why. I have enough ETH and LINK in my VRF subscription.

how much ETH do you have, like 30 ETH.
you are specifying 30 ETH

const VRF_SUB_FUND_AMOUNT = ethers.utils.parseEther("30")

1 ETH is enough
const VRF_SUB_FUND_AMOUNT = ethers.utils.parseEther("1")
and make sure that you have more than 1 ETH.

[alex81983]

I changed 30 to 1 and added a utils folder with the verify.js file. But for some reason I am getting the same errors. I also tried running git init but it didn't hide my .env file. Did I miss a step?

1- please make screenshot of
your MetaMask account or any wallet you are using (showing the balance), and your alchemy config

2- change the verify import, from utils not helper-hardhat-config.
const { verify } = require("../helper-hardhat-config")
like this
const { verify } = require("../utils/verify")

3- and about .env

it will not included next time you'll commit and push the files, but if you push the files I don't know how to deal with that.

so you have to delete your whole repo and recommit, repush it again (what I prefer) or delete .env file manually, but it will be still there cause GitHub tracking every thing.

[alex81983]

I changed the verify to const { verify } = require("../utils/verify") in my deploy file. Thanks for .env! It's no longer showing. The thing is that I changed the verify but I'm still getting the same errors😭 Anything else I might be doing wrong?

hmm it looks like you maybe added a custom sepolia rpc url into your metamask wallet, if you go into settings and set show test nets to true can you use the sepolia config that comes with your wallet? I bit of a guess but maybe worth a try.

Also VRF_SUB_FUND_AMOUNT is only used when you run on a a local network from what I remember.. we just programatically fund our mock subscription. So it would be using a fake account with like 1000 eth. if you are trying to deploy to sepolia, it doesn't matter because we fund the subscription through the chain-link ui.

And glad you fixed your .env files already but just in case something similar happens in the future and your files are not being ignored, that is because putting files in .gitignore will only ignore file that are not already being tracked by git. To stop tracking files that you want to ignore you need to delete you .git, if you have git initialized you will have a .git file and it can be removed by running "rm -rf .git"

I hope this is helpful! let me know if you're able to find a solution :)

I tried deploying on the metamask sepolia testnet and my alchemy sepolia testnet. Both didn't work for some reason. I'm honestly not quite sure why I'm getting these errors because when I deploy it locally it deploys fine.
