I published 3 differents package to the testnet while following the basic move tutorial

And when I try to call a function i consistently have the same error

> Transaction failed
> 
> [WALLET.SIGN\_TX\_ERROR] Transaction failed with the following error. Error checking transaction input objects: DependentPackageNotFound { package\_id: 0xdd21acdfbf5ab38a81e746477c14a8921fd2fbee353454315395c7d060ca277e }

you can actually try to call the function yourself on **suivision** , using testnet and this package id: **0xdd21acdfbf5ab38a81e746477c14a8921fd2fbee353454315395c7d060ca277e**  
Here is **Move.toml** : gist.github[dot]com/0xGoenka/ec36a82abef616dad7d3b72cc7bd8904

here is **hello\_world.move** : gist.github[dot]com/0xGoenka/ce628a38b07c6f297628f250700567fa

I’ve been stuck on this for quite a long time now lol, and would greatly appreciate your help \<3

Hi @Goenka,

Let’s try to see what’s not working here.

Here is what I tried to do on `testnet`. I created a new move project, then copied your `Move.toml` file, and your `hello_world.move` file, then called `sui move build` and then `sui client publish "."`. I made sure I had enough testnet tokens (`sui client gas`), and if you do not have, then get some using `sui client faucet`.

Below you will find a gist with all the files and commands that I run.

When you run `sui client publish`, you want to look for the `Published Objects: PackageID` section of the `Object Changes` table. That will be your package ID that you need to use. Double check that indeed you got the right one.

Also, make sure that you are executing the wallet transaction on the same network as where the package was deployed.
