ERROR: Loading of original wasm failed

Question

I having some trouble running the Flipper example from the Ink! webpage.

The cargo contract build outputs the following error log:

ERROR: Loading of original wasm failed

Caused by:
    0: Loading of wasm module at '/Users/winston/workspace/cs/repos/flipper/target/ink/wasm32-unknown-unknown/release/flipper.wasm' failed
    1: Unknown opcode 192

rustup show output:

Default host: aarch64-apple-darwin
rustup home:  /Users/winston/.rustup

installed toolchains
--------------------

stable-aarch64-apple-darwin
nightly-aarch64-apple-darwin (default)

installed targets for active toolchain
--------------------------------------

active toolchain

rustc 1.70.0-nightly (17c116721 2023-03-29)

As you can see, I am running on the M1 OSX system.

Answer 1

Solved! This was caused by the nightly toolchain. Switching to the stable toolchain solved this issue.

Edit: As pointed out by Shunsuke, this is specific to the 1.70.0 nightly build. 1.68.0 version seems to work.

Answer 2

For cases where updated nightly is still preferred for whatever reason:

rustup update

rustup install nightly-2023-02-07-aarch64-apple-darwin

rustup component add rust-src --toolchain nightly-2023-02-07-aarch64-apple-darwin

...specify nightly version in tag

cargo +nightly-2023-02-07 contract build

Still running updated nightly rustc 1.70.0 as default:
