Error while deploying chaincode in IBM Blockchain Please help

Question

I'm following the instructions to deploy some chaincode to the IBM Hyperledger Blockchain v0.6.1 on Bluemix.. I need to submit a JSON request, which contains the path to the chaincode repository:

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "deploy",
  "params": {
    "type": 1,
    "chaincodeID": {
      "path": "https://github.com/series0ne/learn-chaincode/tree/master/finished"
    },
    "ctorMsg": {
      "function": "init",
      "args": [
        "Hello, world"
      ]
    },
    "secureContext": "user_type1_0"
  },
  "id": 0
}

I have logged in user_type1_0 before attempting to deploy, but this is the result I get:

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "error": {
    "code": -32001,
    "message": "Deployment failure",
    "data": "Error when deploying chaincode: Error getting chaincode package bytes: Error getting code 'go get' failed with error: \"exit status 1\"\npackage github.com/series0ne/learn-chaincode/tree/master/finished: cannot find package \"github.com/series0ne/learn-chaincode/tree/master/finished\" in any of:\n\t/opt/go/src/github.com/series0ne/learn-chaincode/tree/master/finished (from $GOROOT)\n\t/opt/gopath/_usercode_/424324290/src/github.com/series0ne/learn-chaincode/tree/master/finished (from $GOPATH)\n\t/opt/gopath/src/github.com/series0ne/learn-chaincode/tree/master/finished\n"
  },
  "id": 0
}

Any ideas how to resolve this?

Try stripping out the 'tree/master' portion of your deployment url. Notice that the example linked below does not include this portion of the url:

https://github.com/IBM-Blockchain/learn-chaincode#deploying-the-chaincode

This url is going to be passed into a 

go get <url> 

command inside the peer, which will download the chaincode so that it can be compiled. So, this url must match the format accepted by this command.

Following are some other things to check.

• The v2.0 branch from https://github.com/IBM-Blockchain/learn-chaincode should be used with a Blockchain network running Hyperledger Fabric v0.6.1. Is your fork even with the v2.0 branch from https://github.com/IBM-Blockchain/learn-chaincode?
• Was the chaincode deployment issued from the same validating peer used to register the user_type1_0 user? The validating peer can be selected at the top of the APIs tab. There is a note in the Learn Chaincode instructions indicating that the same validating peer must register the user and deploy the chaincode.
