Execution revert error when deploying Safemoon fork on Rinkeby with Remix

Hi @testingneverstop welcome to the forums.

It sounds to me as if you’re trying to force a deployment of incorrectly compiled contracts somehow and the code is wrong so that throws a big error on the network and just reverts it to nothing.

If the remix debugging doesn’t work, then there might be a problem with your dev environment.

For development, I would really start with the basics and build up a working dev environment.

Follow the first hardhat tutorial https://hardhat.org/tutorial/

Then follow this OZ tutorial OpenZeppelin Upgrades: Step by Step Tutorial for Hardhat

If you follow this with an IDE, it will get you a working dev environment that you can troubleshoot and debug in all day long.

If you’ve already followed these tutorials and believe you have a working dev environment (but not for this contract) then paste the code and I can look to see what is going wrong.

There could be a constructor issue, or an import issue.
