TxReceipt Status:Fail

Question

I was able to successfully able to deploy smart contract but the Transaction receipt status is fail. I am posting the link https://ropsten.etherscan.io/tx/0x6a9f66eefaaf349043c96310879d99f02a393ff7b180962af7e856bf18c2ea1a I think maybe there is some problem with gas price. what should minimal gas price for an smart contract

Answer 1

Without the contract code it is almost impossible to tell. But it surely has failed if you look at the contract code it is empty https://ropsten.etherscan.io/address/0xd15fe28c74975d4d4ac2167de2cf3afbac32bf89#code.

If you examine the trace of your transaction it finish in a REVERT opcode https://ropsten.etherscan.io/vmtrace?txhash=0x6a9f66eefaaf349043c96310879d99f02a393ff7b180962af7e856bf18c2ea1a

[119] 86 REVERT 4527597 0 1

Both gasLimit and gasPrice seems to be ok for ropsten

Gas Limit: 4700000

Gas Price: 0.00000002 Ether (20 Gwei)

What looks odd is you sent Ether with your transaction

Value: 10 Ether ($0.00)

It seems your constructor doesn't have the payable modifier. Last lines of the trace are checking the value sent in the transaction:

[113]   77  CALLVALUE   4527621 2   1
[114]   78  ISZERO  4527619 3   1
[115]   79  PUSH2   4527616 3   1
[116]   82  JUMPI   4527613 10  1
[117]   83  PUSH1   4527603 3   1
[118]   85  DUP1    4527600 3   1
[119]   86  REVERT  4527597 0   1

Answer 2

If you are using sample contract code for testing, you might not have a payable contract.

Set the Ether Value to 0 might fix the issue.
