yarn deploy give error with Command failed with exit code 1 when running collection-examples-as - nearprotocol

Question

I am trying to run the collection-examples-as near example but when I run yarn deploy it gives me the following error
$ near dev-deploy --wasmFile="./contract.wasm"
Starting deployment. Account id: dev-1637744501224-6323200, node:
https://rpc.testnet.near.org, helper: https://helper.testnet.near.org, file:
./contract.wasm
An error occurred
Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open './contract.wasm'
[Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open './contract.wasm'] {
errno: -2,
code: 'ENOENT',
syscall: 'open',
path: './contract.wasm'
}
error Command failed with exit code 1.
I think the error is it can't find the path to ./contract.wasm so I run yarn build the I tried to deploy it again using yarn deploy but I got another error which is:
$ near dev-deploy --wasmFile="./contract.wasm"
Starting deployment. Account id: dev-1637744501224-6323200, node:

credentials), UnencryptedFileSystemKeyStore(/home/rasha/collection-examples-

}
any help or suggestions?

There's an issue with old versions of near-cli and dev-deploy.
As a workaround, you can try running the latest cli directly from your terminal:
near dev-deploy --wasmFile="./contract.wasm" -f
Just check that you installed the latest version of near-cli, currently 2.2.0. You can check your version with near --version.
Be sure to run yarn build first, so you'll have the compiled contract.wasm file.
Note: When you run yarn deploy, it uses the old near-cli version defined in package.json. (probably some old version like 1.6.0)
