solidity - brownie compile - Status 404 getting package version from GitHub

Question

I was thinking that the issue was related to the versioning of the release but after used the last version of all packages imported I have the same issue.

Can someone help me with this?

Brownie v1.17.1 - Python development framework for Ethereum

Missing or forbidden.
If this issue persists, generate a Github API token and store it as the environment variable `GITHUB_TOKEN`:

Please paste the error text into the question instead of an image. – Tosch

@Tosch done, I have a problem on compile the code. i don't understand what is going wrong – Squabble

I've seen this a few times. Started a bounty. Thanks for posting. – Saida

judging by mistake, to solve your problem, you need to set up a personal API key from the github, but perhaps I did not understand the context. If my guess did not help, then add a sequence of steps. – Larkins

Can you pull/push anything from/to Github or is the issue isolated for this one? – Carruthers

@everyone I already reset my token - also I tried to create a new token (read and write) but I still have this issue. seems that it does not let me download packages. – Squabble

@MikeBird.eth even if I pull everything brownie does not let me compile my smart contracts. I'm trying to do reverse engineering to find the broken root – Squabble

@PatrickCollins Thank you for the incredible resources for the blockchain ecosystem/community :) – Squabble

Any chance you've been able to solve this yet? – Saida

I tried to get the dependencies from avee and had the same the issue. I double checked my brownie-config.yml in order to find any type or whatever and it was correct. So, I had to add the code manually and set the compiler to 0.5.0. Now, the project compiles. We'll see then if it works. – Kana

Answer 1

I faced this error several times when I had a typo in my brownie-config.yaml... hopefully this helps.

Pandean

Can you elaborate? – Saida

Great Hint! I was wondering if I have to declare all variables possible in my brownie-config.yaml file (ie. eth-brownie.readthedocs.io/en/stable/config.html#config) can you please make me an example in order to apply your suggestion? thank you! – Squabble

read post update! – Squabble

I'm pretty new to solidity programming but one occasion of me getting this error was when I did something like misspelling openzeppelin in the dependencies. Sorry for taking so long to answer btw. – Insensate

Answer 2

So I had the same issue, the fix was something simple that I overlooked and thought I would post here for anyone else who may need the same fix as simple as it is:

Originally:

dependencies:
   -smartcontractkit/chainlink......

Fixed:

depedencies:
   - smartcontractkit/chainlink......

I just needed to add a space after the hyphen

Four

i notice the same issue in the edit, this might fix it without an npm install – Four

Answer 3

A mistake in my brownie-config.yaml caused the problem for me, i typed

- smartcontractkit/[email protected]

instead of having

- smartcontractkit/[email protected]

to clarify i typed 'contract' when it needed to be 'contracts', hope this helps someone.

Mulciber

Answer 4

For me this issue was caused by mispelling openzeppelin in my brownie-config.yml file I hade left out the third e in openzeppelin in my brownie-config dependencies and remappings variables. fixed by changing

openzepplin 

to

openzeppelin 

in those variables.

  - smartcontractkit/[email protected]
  - OpenZeppelin/[email protected]
compiler:
  solc:
    remappings:
      - '@chainlink=smartcontractkit/[email protected]'
      - '@openzeppelin=OpenZeppelin/[email protected]'```
