Error: could not decode result data (value="0x", info={ "method": "retrieve", "signature": "retrieve()" }, code=BAD_DATA, version=6.6.2)

[Alok-Raturi]

I am getting this error whenever i am calling retrieve function. this is my code.

import { ethers } from "ethers";
import fs from "fs-extra";
import dotenv from "dotenv";
dotenv.config();

async function main() {
  const providers = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider(process.env.RPC_URL); // RPC url for ganache

  // const encryptedJson = fs.readFileSync("./.encryptedKey.json", "utf8");
  // let wallet = ethers.Wallet.fromEncryptedJsonSync(
  //   encryptedJson,
  //   process.env.password
  // );
  // wallet = await wallet.connect(providers);
  const wallet = new ethers.Wallet(process.env.Private_Key, providers); // private key of one of the node.

  const abi = fs.readFileSync("./SimpleStorage_sol_SimpleStorage.abi", "utf-8");
  const binary = fs.readFileSync(
    "./SimpleStorage_sol_SimpleStorage.bin",
    "utf-8"
  );

  const contractFactory = await new ethers.ContractFactory(abi, binary, wallet);
  console.log("Deploying, please wait");

  const contract = await contractFactory.deploy();
  console.log("deployed");

  const transactionResponse = await contract.store("7");

  let currentFavoriteNumber = (await contract.retrieve()).toString();

  console.log(currentFavoriteNumber);
}


main()
  .then(() => {
    console.log("success");
  })
  .catch((e) => console.log(e));

i have seen several discussions around the issue but none of them resolved my issue.

The code looks fine.
please check your Solidity code, and you don't need to pass any parameters to retrieve() function.
leave your repo to check.
