[Solved]Debugging invalid address using ethers deploy / openzepplin

Chris Buonocore — Sat, 03 Dec 2022 03:59:46 +0000

Hey there,

Participating in the xdc fall 2022 hackathon and running into an error with the ethers deployer with a successfully compiled contract abi.

Deploy snippet:

Awaiting this yields the error below:

The contract extends Ownable from openzepplin

Is the owner address throwing an error with the xdc prefix while the ethers provider expects the 0x prefix? Any advice how to debug?

Thanks

Error interacting with a XDC contract from ethers.js

Hey All,

Just started working with XDC Testnet and trying to interact with a deployed contract here using ethers.js

Was able to successfully deploy this contract above, however when I interact with it via ethers I get the below uncaught exception:

From a quick search, looks like the ENS error is typically associated with a unparseable address, might be the xdc prefix working with ethers?

Could also share code, but using new ethers.Contract(...) with this address. Appreciate any advice/help!
