Deploying the contract wont work. 7:07:25. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey all, for some reason, when I run this in the terminal --> node deploy.js
It will not deploy the contract. It is throwing this TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'JsonRpcProvider') at main (/Users/edgargutierrez/hh-fcc/ethers-simple-storage-fcc/deploy.js:8:41) at Object. (/Users/edgargutierrez/hh-fcc/ethers-simple-storage-fcc/deploy.js:18:1)

Any help would be greatly appreciated. ps. I have redone the lesson and made sure all code is correct. My guess is that something is now outdated since 0.8.7 was a long time ago.

The newer version of Ethers seems to be unstable ethers 6.0.2... To solve this error downgrade your ethers version to 5.7.2 by going to your package.json

"ethers": "5.7.2",

now on your cli use npm install [email protected] or yarn add [email protected] depending on your package manager and that should solve your error.
