I’m getting this error while running “oz create”.
I initialized oz in an existing truffle project for upgradeabilty. It’s for a hamony project.
The error obtained is: oz create
Nothing to compile, all contracts are up to date.

? Pick a network stable

Hi @asmeedhungana,
Welcome to the community 
I’m sorry that you had this issue.
Are you able to update OpenZeppelin CLI to the latest version (2.8.2)?
In the latest version of 2.8.2 you can use oz deploy and oz create has been deprecated.

Thanks for the reply!
No, actually, my projects dependencies are set accordingly and they can’t be upgraded, hence an older oz version…
It works fine when deployed in Ganache. The errr is thrown when trying to deploy in the testnet for Harmony blockchain…

Hi @asmeedhungana,
It sounds like Harmony SDK doesn’t currently support web3_clientVersion in their TruffleProvider. (https://github.com/harmony-one/sdk/blob/master/packages/harmony-core/src/truffleProvider.ts)
This appears similar to an issue connecting to Loom network: https://github.com/OpenZeppelin/openzeppelin-sdk/issues/405#issuecomment-525175943
You may want to contact the Harmony team about this. Let me know how you get on.
I assume that you want to use the OpenZeppelin CLI to create upgradeable contracts on Harmony.
Alternatively you could look at Upgrading Contracts Programmatically

Thank you so much! I’ll make sure to check that one!

Hello! Can you elaborate on how we can do it “programmatically”? I tried following that but it seems like it doesn’t even update the build files… how exactly do you say i do that on top of my current project state?

Hello again @abcoathup ! I’ve been following this issue for some days now… And here’s what has happened:
I raised the issue in their github page https://github.com/harmony-one/sdk/issues/23 and they seem to have fixed it… so i built their branch locally and then tried with the contract again, but what’s happening is I’m getting the same error while my team-mate is able to deploy it as upgradeable now…
Can you try to build the branch https://github.com/harmony-one/sdk/tree/truffle_provider and test it in one of your upgradeable contracts? I don’t know if this is an issue with my system or with their branch…
and why is this error thrown when using openzeppelin upgrades?

Okay… Hey! Am I getting no reply? I need to know what’s going on…!
Hi @asmeedhungana,
I am not familiar with interacting with Harmony blockchain.
Do you have a repository that I can look at with it all configured?
If your teammate can deploy an upgradeable project to Harmony then I assume that you may have an issue with your configuration.
yes, i guess… I’ll solve it! Thanks for your help!

enen, so how do you solve it? I'm getting the error too, when I used the hardhat to deploy a contract to Conflux blockchain
