Error: insufficient funds for gas * price + value : while deploying the contract

[humanwhoexplores]

I get the above mentioned error

while deploying my contract I deploy my contract by hitting the command $ node deploy.js

[humanwhoexplores]

Q.) What is the account from which the deployment was made ?

[humanwhoexplores]

Added a line to check the balance of the account

`const deploy = async () => { const accounts = await web3.eth.getAccounts();

console.log("All the accounts we got are ", accounts); console.log("Attempting to deploy from account", accounts[0]);

this is the line

let balance = await web3.eth.getBalance(accounts[0]); console.log("The balance is ", balance);

const result = await new web3.eth.Contract(JSON.parse(interface)) .deploy({ data: bytecode, arguments: ["Hi there!"] }) .send({ gas: "1000000", from: accounts[0] });

console.log("Contract deployed to", result.options.address); };`

BRO : this is not my MetaMask's Acct. : IT should be All the accounts we got are [ '0xB3870FD16fe62235017D440E3539Df784Dd4c36D' ] Attempting to deploy from account 0xB3870FD16fe62235017D440E3539Df784Dd4c36D The balance is 0

Next :-

• Check why it is not my MetaMask Account
• check which account it is

Added deploy.js in this commit

Bro : Added this code

var mnemonic = "SCRAP DISH BROCCOLI UPDATE LOUNGE AFRAID ARREST KNOW RENEW LEADER SUNSET COPY";
var infura_provider_url = "https://rinkeby.infura.io/v3/7985ca9520d8459b9e3ef03d4ecbe81c";

const provider = new HDWalletProvider( mnemonic, infura_provider_url);

The mnemonic is of my MetaMask Account :- but the account it get is not my account :: Why ??

[humanwhoexplores]

Confirmed two times : the MNEMONIC is CORRECT

[humanwhoexplores]

It works when i am testing it Locally : with Ganache Cli ! Let me take some insights from there.

[humanwhoexplores]

Still Troubleshooting

[humanwhoexplores]

Done : - One LITTLE ISSUE

var mnemonic = 'scrap dish broccoli update lounge afraid arrest know renew leader sunset copy'; I wrote it in :- UPPER CASE it should be in LOWER CASE

[humanwhoexplores]

I got this while carefully auditing https://www.udemy.com/course/ethereum-and-solidity-the-complete-developers-guide/learn/lecture/9020488#overview

Back to Basics :-

• No Frills please
• i focused on Top-Bottom approach
• slowly slowly ruled out 1 thing at a time
• I have dealt with similar issues in past and the solution was similar
• Focus on Basics #14
• Broke down this work : in multiple granular piece of work. This is my new avatar : this mindset : I have evolved 🥇
  GOOD
