Solana: “Error: Github Account Too new” on solana devnet faucet
Here is a rewritten and improved version of your article:
Error: “Github account is too new” on Solana Devnet Faucet
I’m excited to try out the Solana ecosystem with a local devnet faucet, but I’ve come across an error that has me scratching my head. Yesterday I created a GitHub account to access devnet and start experimenting with Solana tokens.
However, when I try to airdrop 2.5 SOL using the faucet’s built-in wallet, I’m greeted with the annoying message “Github account is too new”. Although I followed the instructions carefully, it seems that my new GitHub account is causing the problem.
After a bit of research and troubleshooting, I’ve tried several solutions to resolve this issue.
- Updating Solana Node: I updated my Solana node to the latest version to see if that fixes the problem.
- Clear Cache and Data
: I cleared the cache and data for my faucet wallet to ensure that all account information was reset.
- Check Account Permissions: I re-verified that my GitHub account has been granted the necessary permissions to access the Solana devnet.
Unfortunately, none of these steps resolved the issue. The “Github account is too new” error still appears.
I am really eager to resolve this issue and successfully airdrop 2.5 SOL using my new GitHub account. If anyone else has had similar issues with the Devnet faucet or Solana tokens, I would appreciate any guidance or advice that could help me with further troubleshooting.
Update: I have tried resetting my wallet settings and re-creating my Solana node, but unfortunately the issue still persists. Any additional information that might be helpful is greatly appreciated!
