Hardhat Ignition doesn't not work with Ownable contracts

[BerkliumBirb]

SUMMARY

Ignition simulates transactions before sending them to chain. And sapphire uses msg.sender as address(0) for simulated calls, which breaks

• Bug Report

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Setup hardhat project with following files:

Files

• hardhat.config.ts

import type { HardhatUserConfig } from "hardhat/config";
import "@oasisprotocol/sapphire-hardhat";
import "@nomicfoundation/hardhat-toolbox";
import "solidity-coverage";
import { vars } from "hardhat/config";

const config: HardhatUserConfig = {
  solidity: "0.8.20",
  networks: {
    sapphire: {
      url: 'https://sapphire.oasis.io',
      chainId: 23294,
      accounts: [
        vars.get('SAPPHIRE_DEPLOYER')
      ]
    }
  }
};

export default config;

• contracts/OwnerTester.sol

// SPDX-License-Identifier: UNLICENSED
pragma solidity ^0.8.10;

import "@openzeppelin/contracts/access/Ownable.sol";

contract OwnerTester is Ownable {
    constructor(address _owner) Ownable(_owner) {}

    uint value;

    function setValue(uint _value) onlyOwner public {
        value = _value;
    }
}

• ignition/modules/Ownable.ts

import { buildModule } from "@nomicfoundation/hardhat-ignition/modules"

export default buildModule("Ownable", (m) => {
    const deployer = m.getAccount(0);
    const ownable = m.contract('OwnerTester', [deployer])

    m.call(ownable, 'setValue', [1]);

    return {
        ownable
    }
})

2. run

npx hardhat ignition deploy ignition/modules/Ownable.ts --network sapphire

Thanks for reporting.
This seems to be similar to foundry, with the difference that it has a --skip-simulation option.

We'll need to take this upstream.

For now you would need to use only hardhat scripts or hardhat scripts with ignition.
