ABI Encode Etherscan Verification Issue (err_code_2)

I am trying to Verify and Publish my source code on Etherscan for my token but I am having issues with the ABI Encode and I can’t solve it. I get the error:

Error! Unable to generate Contract ByteCode and ABI Found the following ContractName(s) in source code : Context, ERC20, IERC20, IERC20Metadata, ShahToken But we were unable to locate a matching bytecode (err_code_2)

Compiler Version: v0.8.5+commit.a4f2e591 Optimization Enabled: True Runs: 200

Etherscan does have an article on how to solve this issue ( https://info.etherscan.com/determine-correct-constructor-argument-during-source-code-verification-on-etherscan/ ) but I’m still having trouble resolving my issue. I also tried sites like https://abi.hashex.org/ to help me but unfortunately, it did not work out for me in the end. Here is a Github of the files I am using it includes the JSON version of the ABI https://github.com/catchingwaleed/JSON-ABI-For-smart-contract/tree/main . The source code I am using to Verify and Publish is “ShahToken_flat.sol”. I will also include the transaction of the token so that the input data can be seen https://goerli.etherscan.io/tx/0x84b67ab31d1aacd2b7dd6a7b0192145b7d6108477f25c3f78628c1ca5eaefa14 . It would be highly appreciated if I was given the ABI Encoded rather than a link to a solution of how to do it.

Additional notes:

Used Remix IDE (Already checked with compiler everything works there)

Token is ERC20 based

Him, welcome! :wave:

I think you can have a look at these two tutorials:

her is my code flatten, if anyone can help, thank you.

Having the same issue I constructed a erc20 contract on remix. I was able to verify on kovan.etherscan without arguments but when I try on etherscan it’s give error invalid constructor argument provided. Please verify that they are in abi encoded format.
I tried the hashex but didn’t know what parameters to enter.
I have the contract flattened and I used GitHub erc20 file. Can seem to get the api correct. I looked at some of the links but when it describes hashex it say place parameters and I’m not sure what to imput there. I tried the token count and contract address and creator address.
The contract address is 0xEB9ef47a5f4b4840948C4ef4967B49993d7202Fb
The token is ROC. I’m using 8.7 compiler and optimized. Although I don’t remember optimizing the contract it says false when I tried without it.

So what is your source code for the mainnet? Just use the same code on the Kovan?

I tried and it didn’t work. Copy paste one to the other and nothing

It’s on kovan but won’t verify on etherscan
When I verify on kovan I didn’t use a abi
Now I can see the contract on kovan and the abi
But the abi won’t verify the etherscan mainnet contract
it was done on remix `

/**
 * @dev Implementation of the {IERC20} interface.
 *
 * This implementation is agnostic to the way tokens are created. This means
 * that a supply mechanism has to be added in a derived contract using {_mint}.
 * For a generic mechanism see {ERC20PresetMinterPauser}.
 *
 * TIP: For a detailed writeup see our guide
 * https://forum.zeppelin.solutions/t/how-to-implement-erc20-supply-mechanisms/226[How
 * to implement supply mechanisms].
 *
 * We have followed general OpenZeppelin Contracts guidelines: functions revert
 * instead returning `false` on failure. This behavior is nonetheless
 * conventional and does not conflict with the expectations of ERC20
 * applications.
 *
 * Additionally, an {Approval} event is emitted on calls to {transferFrom}.
 * This allows applications to reconstruct the allowance for all accounts just
 * by listening to said events. Other implementations of the EIP may not emit
 * these events, as it isn't required by the specification.
 *
 * Finally, the non-standard {decreaseAllowance} and {increaseAllowance}
 * functions have been added to mitigate the well-known issues around setting
 * allowances. See {IERC20-approve}.

I've posted the contract also.

Please do not ask the same question in other topics.

Have verified for you: Richoffcrypto | Address 0xEB9ef47a5f4b4840948C4ef4967B49993d7202Fb | Etherscan

Can you please tell me what I was doing wrong?

Not sure, I just followed the tutorial I shared.

Was it done with hardhat? Or flattened with abi?

I just use your contract code verify on the etherscan, but I always recommend hardhat for those who want to verify contracts.
