Error when deploying migrations

[nklipa13]

I'm getting error when trying to deploy contract to Kovan or Rinkeby network.

Error encountered, bailing. Network state unknown. Review successful transactions manually.
Transaction cost exceeds current gas limit. Limit: 4704588, got: 6721975. Try decreasing supplied gas.

Steps to reproduce:

1. mkdir TruffleTest
2. cd TruffleTest
3. truffle unbox metacoin
4. change truffle.js to:

   
   const dotenv           = require('dotenv').config();
   const HDWalletProvider = require('truffle-hdwallet-provider-privkey');

const mnemonic = process.env.ETHEREUM_ACCOUNT_MNEMONIC;

module.exports = { networks: { kovan: { provider: function() { return new HDWalletProvider(mnemonic, https://kovan.infura.io/); }, network_id: '42', gasPrice: 1000000000 }, rinkeby: { provider: function() { return new HDWalletProvider(mnemonic, 'https://rinkeby.infura.io/'); }, network_id: '4', }, test: { provider: function() { return new HDWalletProvider(mnemonic, 'http://127.0.0.1:8545/'); }, network_id: '*', }, } }

5. `touch .env`
6. put `ETHEREUM_ACCOUNT_MNEMONIC=your_private_key` in .env file
7. `npm install dotenv`, `npm install truffle-hdwallet-provider-privkey`
6. run `truffle migrate --network=kovan`

This error is happening with any truffle project in three different laptops.

I'm getting the same issue.

@madjarevicn @nklipa13

Could you see if setting the default gas key like this helps?

rinkeby: {
  provider: function() {
    return new HDWalletProvider(mnemonic, 'https://rinkeby.infura.io/');
  },
  network_id: '4',
  gas: 4700000
},

Works for me.

@cgewecke great, can you explain why is that? Because it worked two-three days ago? Thanks
