# Entered (/docs/errors/chain/Entered)

Safe-mode is currently active, so `enter` or `force_enter` cannot activate it again and `release_deposit` is blocked until it exits. Check `EnteredUntil` for the block at which safe-mode disengages.

Declared by the `SafeMode` pallet; it classifies to the semantic code [`already_exists`](/docs/errors/already-exists).

## Remediation [#remediation]

The object or state already exists; treat the goal as met or pick a different target

The same explanation is available in the terminal: `btcli explain Entered`.
