Error while trying to mint new Uniswap V3 position

Question

I've been trying to mint new position with Hardhat and a fork of Arbitrum Mainnet but when NonfungiblePositionManager.mint() is called, the transaction is reverted with:

Error: Transaction reverted without a reason string

I'm probably doing something wrong as it is the first time I use the fork features and I work with Uniswap V3 environments.

I thought the error was maybe with WETH, so I tried with a USDC/DAI pool but I still got the same error.

I've taken the example contrat from the Uniswap V3 official docs

Here's my smart contract

contract Ranger is IERC721Receiver {
    address public constant WETH = 0x82aF49447D8a07e3bd95BD0d56f35241523fBab1;
    address public constant USDC = 0xaf88d065e77c8cC2239327C5EDb3A432268e5831;

    uint24 public constant poolFee = 500;

    INonfungiblePositionManager public constant nonfungiblePositionManager =
        INonfungiblePositionManager(0xC36442b4a4522E871399CD717aBDD847Ab11FE88);

    struct Deposit {
        address owner;
        uint128 liquidity;
        address token0;
        address token1;
    }

    mapping(uint256 => Deposit) public deposits;

    function onERC721Received(
        address operator,
        address,
        uint256 tokenId,
        bytes calldata
    ) external override returns (bytes4) {
        _createDeposit(operator, tokenId);
        return this.onERC721Received.selector;
    }

    function _createDeposit(address owner, uint256 tokenId) internal {

            uint128 liquidity,

        ) = nonfungiblePositionManager.positions(tokenId);
        deposits[tokenId] = Deposit({

        (tokenId, liquidity, amount0, amount1) = nonfungiblePositionManager
            .mint(params);

        _createDeposit(msg.sender, tokenId);

        if (amount1 < amount1ToMint) {

            TransferHelper.safeTransfer(WETH, msg.sender, refund0);

    }
}

Thank you for your help and your time, if you need anything else let me know.

Answer 1

For anyone using the same documentation code example here

You have to change TickMath.MIN_TICK and TickMath.MAX_TICK to ticks with the good tickSpacing

For example here the pool I used has 500 for fee value, which mean 10 tick spacing but MAX_TICK is equal to 887272 you could do

tickUpper: MAX_TICK - MAX_TICK % tickSpacing

You can get tick spacing by calling feeAmountTickSpacing in UniswapV3Factory contract or by calling tickSpacing of any pool contract

        INonfungiblePositionManager.MintParams
        memory params = INonfungiblePositionManager.MintParams({
            token0: USDC,
            token1: WETH,
            fee: poolFee,
            tickLower: TickMath.MIN_TICK,
            tickUpper: TickMath.MAX_TICK,
            amount0Desired: amount0ToMint,
            amount1Desired: amount1ToMint,
            amount0Min: 0,
            amount1Min: 0,
            recipient: address(this),
            deadline: block.timestamp
        });

Answer 2

your code and logic seems correct. However, the error "Transaction reverted without a reason string" typically means that a transaction has failed, but the revert operation did not include a specific error message. in simple terms, solidity evm does not figure out what is going on.

i checked those addresses:

const WETH = "0x82aF49447D8a07e3bd95BD0d56f35241523fBab1";
const USDC = "0xaf88d065e77c8cC2239327C5EDb3A432268e5831";
        
INonfungiblePositionManager(0xC36442b4a4522E871399CD717aBDD847Ab11FE88);

they all are valid addresses on Goerli TestNet. but whale account is not

const WHALE = "0x090ee598777CaDDAd04Df4271B167F38E73a9Bf0";

In your test setup, you are impersonating a whale account:

await network.provider.request({
      method: "hardhat_impersonateAccount",
      params: [WHALE],
    });

according to your logic, whale account must hold a significant amount of both USDC and WETH, but it does not even exist:
