Tell us what’s happening:

I have completed the Build a Celestial Bodies Database, completed database dump to create a universe.sql file which was then uploaded onto a public repository. I am trying to submit a link to the file but a “You must complete the project first” message keeps popping up. Here is my link:

Any help?

Welcome to the forum @lndeyeasta97-ui

Try refreshing the freeCodeCamp webpage.

Make sure you logged onto freeCodeCamp before starting the module.

Happy coding

Thank you for the welcome. I have tried multiple times to refresh the page and submit the link but the same message shows. I have also tried logging out and logging back in but nothing seems to be working. Is there a way to bypass it even though I have shown my work and it is complete?

This can happen sometimes. There could be an issue with the database connection, or any number of things.

Make sure your repository is set to public access.

Happy coding

My repository is set to public. I have tried redoing the project to completion and following all steps and still nothing is working. Does it take time for FCC to check and accept the link for the project completion?

If the project status has not changed on the freeCodeCamp website, you could try clicking on the “Start the project’ button to start a fresh project.

I’ll try starting a fresh project and take screenshots upon completion and try submitting the link again. Otherwise the problem might be on the website’s end.

Also, I have question. Upon completion and I save a dump of my database into a universe.sql file is it right that I download the file and upload it to my public repository? Because this is what I have been doing all along. Also, is there anything that I should have checked off when creating the repository e.g. README, gitignore etc. besides making the repository public?

Thanks for all the help.

Hi @lndeyeasta97-ui

I did the project before it became a legacy, so I’m sure if anything has changed.

Make sure you copy and paste the command to create a dump file. Make sure the filename and extension match what is written in the instructions. I didn’t include any other files.
