RuntimeError: abort(ReferenceError: proccess is not defined)

Question

I am following this instructions https://hardhat.org/tutorial/deploying-to-a-live-network.html

When I run the following command (last step of the instructions)

npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.js --network ropsten --verbose

I receive this:

however, when I check my ropsten-eth balance on metamask I can see that I spent some ropsten-eth for deploying.

I have also a json file of the smart contract with abi section in my folder artifacts/contracts/contract.

But because of my error I cannot see the address where the smart contract was deployed to and I don't know what led to the error.

my deploy.js file

const main = async () => {
  const Transactions = await hre.ethers.getContractFactory("Transactions");
  const transactions = await Transactions.deploy();

  await transactions.deployed();

  console.log('Transactions deployed to: ', transactions.address);
}

const runMain = async () => {
  try {
    await main();
    proccess.exit(0);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
    proccess.exit(1);
  }
}

runMain();

my hardhat.config.js file

const { solidity } = require('ethereum-waffle')

require('@nomiclabs/hardhat-waffle')

module.exports = {
  solidity: '0.8.0',
  networks: {
    ropsten: {
      url: 'https://eth-ropsten.alchemyapi.io/v2/*****************',
      accounts: [ '******************************' ]
    }
  }
}

I don't see how this relates to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30239060/uncaught-referenceerror-process-is-not-defined

Answer 1

The issue is that process is misspelt as proccess. It should be

try {
    await main();
    process.exit(0);
} catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
    process.exit(1);
}
