Hey everyone, I am trying to figure out an error when I run the command "dfx identity --network ic deploy-wallet ", the error I get is “The replica returned an HTTP Error: Http Error: status 403 Forbidden, content type “”, content: Requested canister rejected the message”. I have ICP and I’ve converted them to cycles already. I am following the network deployment quick start tutorial.
Thank you everyone for your time and help in solving this.
Hi Jared, can you break down the steps you’ve taken already? When you say you’ve converted ICP to cycles already, have you used them to create a canister that will host your cycles wallet?
While we’re at it, what is the output of the command dfx identity --network ic get-wallet?
I am following the network deployment quick start guide here Network deployment :: Internet Computer
I have gotten all the way down to the paragraph labeled “Convert ICP tokens to cycles”, I did step one no problem but when I get to step 2 where it tells me to run the command dfx identity --network ic deploy-wallet is where I get the 403 forbidden error.
When I run dfx identity --network ic get-wallet I get:
Creating a wallet canister on the ic network.
The replica returned an HTTP Error: Http Error: status 404 Not Found, content type “text/html”, content:
404 Not Found
404 Not Found
nginx/1.19.10
Sorry I didnt answer this question “When you say you’ve converted ICP to cycles already, have you used them to create a canister that will host your cycles wallet”
I think I did, that is done with command "dfx ledger --network ic create-canister --amount ", is that correct?
Okay great, so you have a canisterId to point at, created from the dfx ledger --network ic create-canister <principal-identifier> --amount <icp-tokens> command
I may be wrong about this, but I think you may need to set that canisterId as your wallet first before deploying, with the current logic in dfx. That will look like
dfx identity --network ic set-wallet <canister-id>, and you may need to run that command with --force at the end.
Then, the deploy-wallet command may go through. If this works like I think it should, I can update the guide for the next person to come along
Ok let me give that a shot and I will let you know thank you
Ok so I ran dfx identity --network ic set-wallet and this is the error I got
Here’s a helpful snippet I use to keep my version up to date:
dfxv () {
if [ -n "$1" ]
then
export DFX_VERSION="$1"
fi
sh -ci "$(curl -fsSL https://sdk.dfinity.org/install.sh)"
}
That is helpful thank you, so update then try again with the dfx identity --network ic set-wallet command?
I’d try it again just to see, but the more likely outcome is that deploy-wallet will work this time
ok great, let me try and I’ll let you know

Ok updated but still getting same error I ran dfx identity --network ic set-wallet --force and still got the no wasm module error, I also updated the version in my dfx.json to 0.7.2
and deploy-wallet is still giving you the 403 error?
it is yes, giving me the same 403 error
Hmm, I know a workaround, but it’s pretty kludgey.
Not recommended
The workaround I have done before is:
clone GitHub - dfinity/cycles-wallet: DFINITY Cycles Wallet
add a canister_ids.json file with the following code:
{
"wallet": {
"ic": "<canister-id>"
}
}
Then run
dfx build wallet
dfx canister --network ic --no-wallet install wallet
dfx identity --network ic set-wallet <canister-id>
dfx wallet --network ic upgrade
