I am trying to write a Decentralization App to buy a concert ticket. For some reason, the part owner.transfer(this.balance) keeps giving me error. Also since solidity has too many version, I can't find a the best for mine. please help me in this. Thank you
Erro Message
Getting error as Member “balance” not found or not visible after argument-dependent lookup. Use address(this).balance to access address owner.transfer(this.balance)
Solidity Code
pragma solidity 0.6.6;
contract Event {
address owner;
uint public tickets;
string public description;
string public website;
uint constant price = 0.01 ether;
mapping (address => uint) public purchasers;
constructor(uint t, string memory _description, string memory _webstite) public {
owner = msg.sender;
description = _description;
website = _webstite;
tickets = t;
}
// function () payable {
// buyTickets(1);
// }
function buyTickets(uint amount) public payable {
if (msg.value != (amount * price) || amount > tickets) {
revert();
}
purchasers[msg.sender] += amount;
tickets -= amount;
if (tickets == 0) {
owner.transfer(this.balance);
}
}
function refund(uint numTickets) public {
if (purchasers[msg.sender] < numTickets) {
revert();
}
msg.sender.transfer(numTickets * price);
purchasers[msg.sender] -= numTickets;
tickets += numTickets;
}
}
After I change it to owner.transfer(address(this).balance);
, it gave me another error.

transact to Event.buyTickets errored: VM error: revert. revert The transaction has been reverted to the initial state. Note: The called function should be payable if you send value and the value you send should be less than your current balance. Debug the transaction to get more information.
transfer is only able for payable address. try as follows.
address payable owner;
...
owner.transfer(address(this).balance);
