[FIXED] How to remove Smart Contract in NEAR Protocol?

Issue

I am new to blockchain and Near Protocol. I have created 2 smart contracts on Near Protocol. The first one was successfully done but when I try to deploy the second one, I have deployed it but when I try to call a method ('increment' in this case) it gives error. I looked for the error and they say that this error executed because I tried to deploy another smart contract. So how can I remove the first one? Or can I? Or should I? Thanks. The error is below:

ServerTransactionError: {"index":0,"kind":{"ExecutionError":"Smart contract panicked: panicked at 'Cannot deserialize the contract state.: Custom { kind: InvalidData, error: \"Not all bytes read\" }

Solution

This depends. Are you running on testnet or mainnet and do you need to transfer any assets. You can only deploy 1 smart contract per wallet and it seems that you need to delete the wallet to remove the contract afaik

You can use near delete accountName.networkName
