I built and have tested a contract on the Ropsten testnet but when I tried to deploy to the mainnet the transaction was reverted. not sure what the reasoning was I tried not spending all that much to deploy it so not sure if that was cause or not.

Using Remix IDE for deployment.

Transaction ID: 0x47bbe74d09559298b973348b7c41b4363977ccaea5ad33ced5904c16f5fffaeb

Fail with:

  • @MajdTL it is a pretty chunky contract about 450 lines and using remix to deploy

Probably it is the mistake, but I'm not sure: You have sent extra 60 wei with your contract. that(see the picture) is no the transaction fee and it should always be 0 unless your contract expecting the ether. If you are using metamask with remix then you can change the gas price there.

Secondly, I guess your gas limit is too low (550,000), take care of sending a transaction with low gas limit, because it will fail. Can you post the transaction id of the contract on Ropston to see how much gas was needed?

I really don't encourage you to deploy anything to the mainnet just for testing, unless you have a product and need a last test, before going live.

  • ropsten.etherscan.io/address/… is the testnet contract

  • that contract needed 4228536 gas to be deployed, you should set the gas limit to more than that (maybe a littel more depends on the version of solidity and optimization number) in remix before sending it. it will probably cost you your rent to deploy it on the mainnet.

  • you can see how much gas the contract used in the contract creation transaction ropsten.etherscan.io/tx/…

  • ethgasstation.info/calculatorTxV.php you can calculate how much it will cost here
