Errors management on Solana: understanding of the target error

As a developer who works with the Solana blockchain, you have probably found various errors that can hinder your progress. A common error message is the “target is not supported” error, which can be particularly frustrating when it derives from the rust code.

In this article, we will deepen the details of what is causing this error and explore possible solutions to solve it on the Solana platform.

The error message

When you see the following error message:

`Rust

Error: Target is not supported, for more information, consult:

-> SRC/Lib.RS: 267: 9

Indicates that your rust code has encountered a problem with theGetrandom. In particular, it seems to try to fill in a target (for example,Wasm32, x86_64) but is not supported by this case.

Understanding of the context

To understand why this error is taking place, let's examine the context briefly:

• Rust Version : The code is written in Rust 1.61.0.

• Getrandom Crate : The goal he tried to fill in isWasm32(Webassembly).

• Error message : The message indicates that the caseGetrandomdoes not support this goal.

Possible solutions

To solve this error, you can try the following solutions:

1. Update rust to a supported version

Make sure your rust version is updated and compatible with theGetrandom Court. You can check the latest versions on [Cass.io] ( or update rust using rustup upgrade.

Bash

Update rust

Rustup-stable update for the Versions-Default

`

2. Specify the goal in the cargo.toml file

Instead of coding the target in the code, specify it directly in thecargo.toml. You can do it by adding a fieldtarget ‘with the desired value.

`Toml

[package]

Name = “Your_package”

version = “0.1.0”

[addictions]

Getrandom = “1.4.2”

Specify the target here

[target]

Compile-features = [“Getrandom”]

`

3. Do you use thetarget function?

Add the TARGT 'function to the cargo.toml file to allow specific platforms targeting.

Toml

[package]

Name = “Your_package”

version = “0.1.0”

[addictions]

Getrandom = “1.4.2”

Specify the target here

[target]

Compile-features = [“Getrandom”]

`

4. Use a compatible case version

If you are using a previous version ofGetrandom, consider updating to a compatible version that supports your target.

Rust

Getrandom external crate;

Fn Main () {

let casual = getrandom :: casual;

}

`

By implementing these solutions, you should be able to solve the “target” error is not supported “on Solana and continue working with your rust code.
