I’m running a script calling the contract on the testnet.

```shell
forc run --path $(INITIALIZER) --release -r \
--target testnet \
--contract $(CONTRACT_ID) \
--gas-price 10000 \
--max-fee 1000000000 \
$(SIGNING_KEY)

```

What does it mean:

```auto
error: provider: io error: warning: the fuel node version to which this provider is connected has a semver incompatible version from the one the SDK was developed against. Connected node version: 0.30.0, supported version: 0.28.0. Response errors; InsufficientMaxFee { max_fee_from_policies: 0, max_fee_from_gas_price: 326087 }

```

1. Why the supported node version is `0.28.0` when I’m using `fuel-core : 0.30.0+nightly.20240705.eb9c44bdd9`
2. How to convine the node to not throw the `InsufficientMaxFee` message. What does it mean `max_fee_from_policies: 0`? How to set it?

fuelup show (but same for toolchain `testnet`):

can you install the testnet toolchain by running the command from [here](https://docs.fuel.network/guides/installation/#using-the-latest-toolchain)? also, would you share the SDK version you are using?

Can you share what script are you trying to run? It’d help me figure out if its a tooling issue or the script issue

Sure:)

Maybe I missed sth for cross-contract invocations ;/

```rust
script;

use std::logging::log;
configurable {
    CONTRACT_ID: b256 = 0xc58d1c1c00a95a02e7f363279dbc242c94b60fb7022f1dac74778b3320ce7dec,
}

abi Prices {
    #[storage(read, write)]
    fn init(signers: Vec<b256>, signer_count_threshold: u64);
}

const SIGNER_COUNT_THRESHOLD = 1;

fn main() {
    let mut signers: Vec<b256> = Vec::new();
    signers.push(0x00000000000000000000000012470f7aba85c8b81d63137dd5925d6ee114952b);

    let prices = abi(Prices, CONTRACT_ID);
    let _ = prices.init(signers, SIGNER_COUNT_THRESHOLD);
}

Also changing to

We have released a new fuel core version `0.31.0`, you can read about it [here](https://forum.fuel.network/t/release-of-the-new-version-of-fuel-core-0-31-0/6223/1). Can you try updating the toolchain to the latest and see how how it goes?

Still the same issue.

I also don’t understand, why this error is displayed:

```auto
error: provider: io error: warning: the fuel node version to which this provider is connected has a semver incompatible version from the one the SDK was developed against. Connected node version: 0.31.0, supported version: 0.28.

```

It seems that the node-url returns sth wrong, or it connects to another node, not to the testnet.fuel.network/v1/graphql…

Locally it works perfectly, but for testnet I cannot run the script invoking the contract.  
Maybe I need to recreate the wallet or sth? I did top up both, local and remote wallets…

you might need to [update your default toolchain](https://docs.fuel.network/guides/installation/#installing-nightly-toolchain). Here is the output from [my terminal](https://app.warp.dev/block/r2rie3suHRjAZew5FGnwhp), see the ac†ive default toolchain in that

you can also run `fuelup default nightly `

Hey @Lukasz2891, i have updated the `[fuel-toolchain.toml](https://github.com/redstone-finance/fuel-test-contract/blob/main/fuel-toolchain.toml)` to these values

```auto
[toolchain]
channel = "testnet-aarch64-apple-darwin"

[components]
forc = "0.62.0"
fuel-core = "0.31.0"

```

and have also updated the the `forc-version` to `0.62.0` in the `[Forc.toml](https://github.com/redstone-finance/fuel-test-contract/blob/main/test_contract/Forc.toml)` file and it fixed the version issue for me. here is the screenshot of the output for `make deploy_and_init` command

For ignition/`forc 0.35.0`

`error: provider: io error: Response errors; InsufficientMaxFee { max_fee_from_policies: 0, max_fee_from_gas_price: 326087 }`

still, don’t know how to increase the fee in a script invocation.

maybe the script doesn’t provide the fee-parameters to the contract?

for typescript sdk everything looks properly
