Lesson 5 Issue with running 'brownie run .\scripts\deploy.py'

[heider89]

Hi, I refer to the Youtube video at the 4:34:10 mark. I'm facing the following error when running deploy.py file

I notice that a similar question was raised before (#39) but the solution did not work on my end. Kindly advice.

Okay apparently, it is solved by changing (or creating a new) the directory.

1. Old: C:\Users\heide\ .vscode\demos\brownie_simple_storage>
2. New: C:\Solidity\brownie_simple_storage>

Would be interested to know why this is the case.

I had a similar experience two days ago. Before restarting the whole thing in a new directory you can try the following things:

1. Just try a few times to run the script. I had issues with the first run but none with the second run. It seems to me that there is a lot of communication between brownie and ganache happening and brownie does not seem to be rock solid (from my few days of experience).
2. I would close the terminal, open a new one and try again.
3. A mysterious compiler issue was solved by removing all compiler artifacts within the build directory and subdirectories and trying again.

Did you install the new ganache or the deprecated ganache-cli? If so, please have a look at this post #971

Just a note to say I had the same issue. Resolved by re-installing ganache globally from the cmd line

npm install ganache --global
