@solyakin : Make sure you are running your hardhat forked node! before running the script..

[solyakin]

Please how do i do that

[RoboCrypter]

@solyakin : Follow these steps :

1. You should have your MAINNET_RPC_URL inside your .env file, which your can get from Alchemy.

2. And after that you should have MAINNET_RPC_URL in your hardhat.config.js file and also enable forking inside hardhat.

Like this :

networks: {
        hardhat: {
            chainId: 31337,
            forking: {
                url: process.env.MAINNET_RPC_URL,
            },
        }
    }

4. After that run the command : yarn hardhat node : To start the hardhat node.

5. And then open another terminal and run your script by running : yarn hardhat run scripts/aaveBorrow.js --network localhost

Did someone know what the solution is for this? I got the same error and after tinkering a lot I haven't found an answer yet.
