Lesson 4: solcx installation issue #1682

Open MathisGreatCode opened 2 years ago

MathisGreatCode commented 2 years ago

Hi everybody, After two days of trying to find the solution by myself, reading all related issues already posted here and in StackOverflow I'm asking for your help. In lesson 4, I installed solcx as explained with "pip install py-solc-x", I have the message telling me it sucessfully installed but then when I'm trying to execute deploy.py typing "python deploy.py" in my terminal the following message appears: (the first sentence is in French and means "unable to find files for the specified model(s).")

Information : impossible de trouver des fichiers pour le(s) modèle(s) spécifié(s). Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\mathi\demos\web3_py_simple_storage\deploy.py", line 7, in compiled_sol = compile_standard( File "C:\Users\mathi\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\solcx\main.py", line 371, in compile_standard solc_binary = get_executable(solc_version) File "C:\Users\mathi\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\solcx\install.py", line 183, in get_executable raise SolcNotInstalled( solcx.exceptions.SolcNotInstalled: Solc is not installed. Call solcx.get_installable_solc_versions() to view for available versions and solcx.install_solc() to install.

I have tried many things but nothing worked, does anyone has a clue what should I do to make it work ?
