It seems that gas and gasPrice from truffle.js are not getting passed to TestRPC anymore, though I don't know how and when exactly they were passed earlier. Starting TestRPC with --gasLimit 6721975 --gasPrice 100000000000 (to mimic the hardcoded default values in truffle-core) made our tests work again.

The problem is likely that the optimizer is now disabled by default in Truffle 4, and I believe Ropsten's block gas limit may be too low.

You can find background on why we disabled the optimizer in trufflesuite/truffle-compile#5, and instructions for re-enabling it in the docs. Let me know if you try that and if it works. Thanks!

gnidan on 3 Nov 2017

I enabled the optimizer according your the description in the docs. Here is my truffle.js file:

module.exports = {
    networks: {
        development: {
            host: "localhost",
            port: 8545,
            network_id: "*"
        }
    },
    rpc: {
        host: "localhost",
        gas: 4712388,
        port: 8545
    },
    solc: {
        optimizer: {
            enabled: true,
            runs: 200
        }
    },
};

If I run:
$ truffle migrate --reset

I get the following error:

Using network 'development'.

Do you have any idea what is going wrong there?

I'm getting the same errors after updating to latest truffle and testrpc. If I set a gas param in truffle.js I get
screenshot from 2017-11-05 10-56-07

This never happened before updating. Nothing's changed in my contracts. Only updated truffle and testrpc. On the other hand if I run truffle develop and then migrate everything works fine.
Updating also affected deploy to rinkeby where I get out of gas error.

aliniacb on 5 Nov 2017

I got the same problem as @Bowfish

wzbbbb on 6 Nov 2017

From this issue, you may need to split up your contracts into smaller contracts so they get easily deployed with a gas amount that is within the block limit, as enabling solc optimizer may not be exactly what you want to do [you may begin to have bytecodes that behave differently from your source code].

Visit the truffle release page to see security concerns associated with enabling solc optimizer.

Hope this helps.

DOkwufulueze on 6 Nov 2017

Unfortunately this doesn't help. I tested it with the default Metacoin.sol contract which is created with truffle init. Therefore the bug must be somewhere else.

Bowfish on 7 Nov 2017

Oh! Then the bug must be somewhere else for sure. I'll keep checking for a working solution and inform here if possible.

There's an issue with this version of truffle for sure. Did a clean ubuntu install with latest node, truffle, testrpc and I get out of gas in any situation. So having optimization flag enabled in truffle.js does not help. I've used for this test some really simple contracts. For example https://github.com/LindaHealthcareICO/linda-crowdsale used to work with previous truffle version. Please note if you test those contracts there's a typo in their package.json file (a trailing coma in the scripts section) so you should fix that before installing.

I installed truffle 4.0.0-beta.0 and everything is working fine.

Worked for me too. Downgrading fixed the issue!

aliniacb on 7 Nov 2017

Hi everyone. Thanks for the feedback.

Are you all using the TestRPC? If so, try using truffle develop instead, and let us know if the issues disappear. Please refer to the 4.0 release notes for more information about truffle develop.

@tcoulter Hi, yes, I'm on testrpc. As previously mentioned truffle develop works fine but I've chosen testrpc because I couldn't get the created accounts private keys nor set a custom balance for each account.
Thanks!

aliniacb on 7 Nov 2017

I'm on testrpc too.

Bowfish on 7 Nov 2017

I tested it on truffle develop and everything is working fine. This is much more convenient than testrpc. Great job!

Is it possible to create more than 10 accounts in truffle develop in the same way as with testrpc --accounts 20 ?

Just to reinforce the thread, I was facing the same issue. Downgrading truffle to 4.0.0-beta.0 fixed the issue.

ButSoft on 10 Nov 2017

I had the same error, but with truffle develop it works perfect. You can use truffle develop instead of testrpc. With truffle develop you have the same functionality as with testrpc but with some additional cool features.

What about migrating to a remote test network. Are you sure the issue won't be there? Truffle develop works for me too but when I try to migrate the code to rinkeby I get the same out of gas error.

aliniacb on 10 Nov 2017

Same problem, I solve it by forcing --gasLimit to a high value "9999999999"

Same error on Ubuntu with Truffle 4.0.1, using testrpc

setting gas limit does not help.

downgrading to @beta works fine.

antony on 14 Nov 2017

Having the same issue, downgrading did'nt help. Everything works on local TestRpc, but if I try to publish it to Ropsten or Rinkeby via Geth it wont work.

Had the same issue with truffle 4.0.1 and testrpc and had to set gas limit and price as advised. Just updated testrpc to latest version (EthereumJS TestRPC v6.0.3 (ganache-core: 2.0.2)) and it works for me without setting gas. Haven't tried deploying on test networks yet. If it still doesn't work on those, does anyone in truffle support have an idea when it will be fixed please?

habdelra on 22 Dec 2017

Try adding the max gas while deploying in 2_deploy_contracts.js
deployer.deploy(Con1, {gas: 6721975, from: "0xaddr"});
To get gaslimit 6721975, I used web3.eth.getBlock("pending").gasLimit. This is working for me in ubuntu , truffle4.0.0

Rewrite your truffle.js file like
module.exports = {
networks: {
development: {
host: "10.0.0.18",
port: 8545,
gas: 6712388,
gasPrice: 65000000000,
network_id: "*" // Match any network id
}
}
};

Had the issue with the newest version of Ganache, set this in truffle.js

gas: 6712388,
gasPrice: 65000000000,

Everything is working smoothly.

I have the same issue. I am able to migrate contract successfully, but i cannot use truffle test.
truffle version

Truffle v4.0.5 (core: 4.0.5)

This is my truffle.js

    port: 8545,
    network_id: "*", // Match any network id

Issue solved by re-enable the optimizer from Truffle Documentation.

This is my truffle.js

var HDWalletProvider = require("truffle-hdwallet-provider");

module.exports = {
  solc: {
    optimizer: {
      enabled: true,
      runs: 200
    }
  },
  networks: {
    development: {
      host: "127.0.0.1",
      port: 7545,
      network_id: "5777"
    },
    rinkeby: {
      provider: function() {
        return new HDWalletProvider("my own mnemonic", "https://rinkeby.infura.io/xxxxx")
      },
      network_id: 3
    }
  }

I'm unable to migrate to a remote network like Rinkeby keep getting error: insufficient funds for gas * price + value

zerostatic on 31 Jan 2018

@camelscript did you find the solution? I'm facing that problem too. I can deploy to testrpc successfully, but I cannot deploy to rinkeby. The truffle migrate outputs:

Error: The contract code couldn't be stored, please check your gas amount.

nguyenhoaibao on 31 Jan 2018

Strangely it's working today. I'm using Truffle version v4.0.5 and migrating a small contract. Here are my settings in truffle.js
ropsten: { provider: new HDWalletProvider( mnemonic, 'https://ropsten.infura.io/XAmfM8SVSh5OkuiYMIBx', 2 ), network_id: 3, gas: 4600000, }, rinkeby: { provider: new HDWalletProvider( mnemonic, 'https://rinkeby.infura.io/XAmfM8SVSh5OkuiYMIBx', 2 ), network_id: 4, gas: 6712388, gasPrice: 1000000000 }

@yisheng thank you. It works by enabling optimizer. Do you know why?

Ok, but what about the file that deploys the actual contracts? (e.g. 2_deploy_contracts.js) I got the error "The contract code couldn't be stored, please check your gas amount" when this file was not correct.

MeHighP on 2 Mar 2018

I ran into the same issue with truffle 4.1.0 using ganache.
I tried adding rpc and solc options to truffle.js => no improvement.

I downgraded to 4.0.7 => no improvement
I downgraded to 4.0.5 (npm i -g [email protected]) => problem solved.
4.0.6 fails as well.

chevdor on 7 Mar 2018

@chevdor Apologies, could you provide any additional context or information - for example your truffle.js? Is the project you're working on public?

There was quite a bit added in the 4.0.6 release - if you've managed to isolate that as a source of problems it would be nice to resolve them.

cgewecke on 8 Mar 2018

I updated geth & truffle today.

Now I'm getting "Transaction not found after 50 blocks" when trying to deploy to mainnet.

I tried setting my gas higher than anything on http://ethgasstation.info/ , still with no publication of the contract.

truffle.js:

live: { host: "127.0.0.1", port: 8545, network_id: "*", from: "0xa281cd2ba15dc43f8110ddaee837274800931f7e", gasPrice: 9, gas: 200000 },

quantumproducer on 8 Mar 2018

@quantumproducer the gasPrice in your truffle.js is in units of wei, so setting a gas price of "9" is basically like not providing any gas. probably you meant 9 gwei which i think is 9000000000

habdelra on 8 Mar 2018

Ah I read ina blog post that gas was done in GWei, I see now that's just how it's referred to but the vlaues are in wei.
@habdelra I tried with 7000000000 Same result.
https://ethgasstation.info/ says gas price is 3 Gwei

I have the same problem. And none of the solutions helps.

@quantumproducer The strange thing is the contract is working just fine when published by web3 or in remix. (Tested on Ropsten).

I'm still getting this issue on mainnet. Btw Mradkov how did you calculate the gas usage exactly for your contract deployment? (Something in truffle?)

quantumproducer on 8 Mar 2018

I'm having a similar issue, though specifically with mainnet:

I'm trying to only deploy the Migrations.sol

module.exports = {
  solc: {
    optimizer: {
      enabled: true,
      runs: 200
    }
  },
  networks: {
    development: {
      host: 'localhost',
      port: 8545,
      network_id: '*' // Match any network id
    },
    rinkeby: {
      host: "localhost",
      port: 8545,
      network_id: "4",
      from: '...',
      gas: 4500000,
      gasPrice: 21000000000
    },
    mainnet: {
      network_id: 1,
      from: '...',
      host: "localhost",
      port: 8546   // Different than the default
    }
  }
}

I've tried lots of combinations of gas and gasPrice. Very confusing.

truffle migrate --network mainnet -f 1 --reset
Using network 'mainnet'.

Running migration: 1_initial_migration.js
  Deploying Migrations...
  ... undefined
Error encountered, bailing. Network state unknown. Review successful transactions manually.
Error: exceeds block gas limit

geth version 1.8.2
truffle version 4.1.0 and 4.1.3

It works swimmingly on rinkeby and testrpc.

Any suggestions?

@mradkov I'm able to deploy to kovan fine. I need to deploy to the main net.
Remix gives me the error: https://github.com/ethereum/remix/issues/716

quantumproducer on 9 Mar 2018

BTW, my issue here wound up being that my node was not fully synced. I should probably create a new issue, "When trying to deploy to a node that is not fully synced, an error about gas limit is given, rather than something that makes sense"

Agreed, the same error confused me to. It wasn't clear from the error that you had to sync to deploy.
I get this error now, after syncing.

"Contract couldn't be found after 50 blocks"

Why? I'm offering 9 GWEI for gas. Why does this happen?

I've tried without the optimizer, too. geth is 1.8.2

Truffle v4.0.6 (core: 4.0.6)
Solidity v0.4.19 (solc-js)

I'm unable to deploy my smart contract while this is happening.

I am experiencing the same issue...

Truffle v4.1.3 (core: 4.1.3)
Solidity v0.4.19 (solc-js)

The contract deploys just fine to Ganache development network.
The contract fails to upload to Ropsten test network.

My truffle.js source:

module.exports = {
networks: {
development: {
host: "127.0.0.1",
port: 7545,
network_id: "*" // Match any network id
},

    ropsten: {
        host: "127.0.0.1",
        port: 8545,
        network_id: 3,
        gas: 4698712,
        //gasPrice: 100000000000,
        from: "0x689bb9068f12BfaCEF6aeeC6f37d9fa5963d4bd7" //<your unlocked ropsten account address>
    },
},

};

res-Q on 20 Mar 2018

Following up from my post yesterday... was able to deploy successfully using the GAS Limit specified in Ropsten Etherscan.

How I did it...

Deployed a small contract to Ropsten successfully
Viewed the contract in https://ropsten.etherscan.io.
Clicked on the 'Transaction Hash' of the deployed contract to reveal information about the network.
Gas Limit displays as: 1828127 (provided screenshot)

Modified 'truffle.js' to the following...

ropsten: {
        host: "127.0.0.1",
        port: 8545,
        network_id: 3,
        gas: 1828127,  // <- new GAS LIMIT value
        //gasPrice: 100000000000,
        from: "0x689bb9068f12BfaCEF6aeeC6f37d9fa5963d4bd7" //<your unlocked ropsten account address>
    },

Deleted build folder from truffle project
Ran command: truffle compile
Ran command: truffle migrate --network ropsten

output:

What worked for me is:
truffle migrate --clean --network ropsten

Error 'The contract code couldn't be stored, please check your gas amount.'

As I just learned - if you get this error while deploing to private network - it could signal, that remote node have wrong evm version

JackBekket on 3 May 2020

Also truffle could try to compile and deploy contracts for petersburg at byzantine network and give only
Error 'The contract code couldn't be stored, please check your gas amount.

You can check difference your local ganache evm version and version of other chain you want to deploy to
