migrating contracts

Question

When I want to migrate a contract to rinkeby network using the command:

truffle.cmd migrate --network rinkeby

I get the error:

Using network 'rinkeby'. Running migration: 1_initial_migration.js Deploying Migrations... ... undefined Error encountered, bailing. Network state unknown. Review successful transactions manually.

My truffle.js code:

 module.exports = {
  networks: {
    development: {
      host: "localhost",
      port: 8545,
      network_id: "*" // Match any network id
    },
    rinkeby: {
      host: "localhost", // Connect to geth on the specified
      port: 8545,
      from: "0x9eb9afe773757fa175116ae1ba10a23a87fa8f52", // default address to use for any transaction Truffle makes during migrations
      network_id: 4,
      gas: 4612388 // Gas limit used for deploys
    },
    mainnet: {
      host: "localhost", // Connect to geth on the specified
      port: 8545,
      from: "0x0", // default address to use for any transact$
      network_id: 1,
      gas: 4712388, // Gas limit used for deploys
      gasPrice: 100000000000
    }
  }
};

You don't have enough Rinkeby test ether in your account. Make sure that the account deploying them has some money to spend. Here's a faucet: https://faucet.rinkeby.io/

How much ether is enough? I currently have 1.5 test ether in my account https://ibb.co/e7PkVo – JustinZ May 21 '18 at 17:57
That should be good for a basic contract deployment. Are you passing in gas / gasprice in your truffle.js file? https://github.com/trufflesuite/truffle/issues/660 – thefett May 21 '18 at 18:02
My truffle.js code: – JustinZ May 21 '18 at 19:56
are you actually running a ropsten node? I would highly recommend infura: http://truffleframework.com/tutorials/using-infura-custom-provider – thefett May 21 '18 at 20:25
im running rinkeby node – JustinZ May 22 '18 at 04:41
I have also unlocked the account while migrating – JustinZ May 22 '18 at 04:52
Can you give the infura a try? If it works there then it has something to do with your client – thefett May 22 '18 at 14:22
I have another question I would like you to answer. Do I need to import rinkeby accounts into geth somehow different or the same as I import the main net accounts? Because when I import rinkeby accounts into geth using this tutorial: https://ethereum.stackexchange.com/questions/465/how-to-import-a-plain-private-key-into-geth-or-mist for some reson it puts it's private keys into main net folder and not into the "rinkeby" folder. Because I have the suspicion that the way I imported the account is the main cause of the problem. – JustinZ May 23 '18 at 17:04
I use the hdwalletproivider (see the infura link). That way you just get to set a mnemonic. Then you can always just get the private key and import it into metamask for getting some test ether – thefett May 24 '18 at 15:55
