@ross_elpharin & @Sid-1661
try replacing the accounts value like this:
testnet: {

  url: "https://data-seed-prebsc-1-s1.binance.org:8545",

  chainId: 97,

  gasPrice: 20000000000,

  accounts: [process.env.PRIVATE_KEY ]

},

obviously with your own private key between the brackets

Ensure the mnemonic/private key is set.

{
   ...
   accounts: { mnemonic: <your mnemonic> }  // produces the error if mnemonic is undefined.
   ...
}

How to use mnemonic from truffle-dashboard?

It happened with me also and i resolved it by removing chainID
But for a note i was setting up Ganache local network

If anyone else having the same problem, it is at some cases because you have put chainId into .env file and it reads it as string, you need to type say: process.env.CHAIN_ID * 1 in order to parse it into int.
