# AA13 initCode failed or OOG

`AA13 initCode failed or OOG` is an ERC-4337 EntryPoint error that means the EntryPoint could not deploy the smart account because its `initCode` reverted or ran out of gas.

:::info
OOG = Out Of Gas
:::

The EntryPoint failed to create the smart account with the `initCode` provided. There are two possible reasons:

* The `initCode` ran out of gas
* The `initCode` reverted during the account deployment process

## Possible solutions

* Verify that the factory address in the `initCode` is correct (the factory address is the first 20 bytes of the `initCode`).
* Verify that the `initCode` is correct.
* Check whether the `verificationGasLimit` is sufficient for the `initCode` to complete without running out of gas.
* If the root cause is a revert, investigate why the `initCode` reverts during the account deployment process using tools like [Tenderly](https://tenderly.co/).
