Truffle migrate does not run 2_deploy_contracts.js

Question

I am having problems with truffle migrate on the default Truffle project and using Infura as the provider.

Steps to reproduce problem

1. truffle init
2. npm install ethereumjs-wallet bip39 [email protected] [email protected] zeppelin-solidity --save
3. Edit truffle.js to use deterministic wallet and infura provider. (Code below)
4. truffle compile
5. truffle migrate --network rinkeby

However running truffle migrate --network rinkeby does only a partial migrate. It does not go on to migrate 2_deploy_contracts.js.

$ truffle migrate --network rinkeby
Running migration: 1_initial_migration.js

$ 

Anyone knows what might be the problem?

Using:

• Truffle v3.4.9 (core: 3.4.8)
• Solidity v0.4.15 (solc-js)

truffle.js

var bip39 = require("bip39");
var hdkey = require('ethereumjs-wallet/hdkey');
var ProviderEngine = require("web3-provider-engine");
var WalletSubprovider = require('web3-provider-engine/subproviders/wallet.js');
var Web3Subprovider = require("web3-provider-engine/subproviders/web3.js");
var Web3 = require("web3");

// Get our mnemonic and create an hdwallet
var mnemonic = "couch solve unique spirit wine fine occur rhythm foot feature glory away";
var hdwallet = hdkey.fromMasterSeed(bip39.mnemonicToSeed(mnemonic));

// Get the first account using the standard hd path.
var wallet_hdpath = "m/44'/60'/0'/0/";
var wallet = hdwallet.derivePath(wallet_hdpath + "0").getWallet();
var address = "0x" + wallet.getAddress().toString("hex");

var providerUrl = "https://rinkeby.infura.io/somekey";
var engine = new ProviderEngine();
engine.addProvider(new WalletSubprovider(wallet, {}));
engine.addProvider(new Web3Subprovider(new Web3.providers.HttpProvider(providerUrl)));
engine.start(); // Required by the provider engine.


module.exports = {
  networks: {
    development: {
      host: "localhost",
      port: 8545,
      network_id: "*" // Match any network id
    },

    rinkeby: {
        network_id: 4,
        provider: engine,
        from: address
    }
  }
};

Here's the output of truffle migrate --network rinkeby --verbose-rpc

Using network 'rinkeby'.

Answer 1

UPDATE: You can replace the code provided by the Infura / Truffle tutorial as follows, which is extremely shorter and easier to read/modify.

You can change all the code above for the two lines below to make it much easier.

var HDWalletProvider = require("truffle-hdwallet-provider");
var mnemonic = "word1 word2 word3 etc";

Install truffle-hdwallet-provider package.

$ npm install truffle-hdwallet-provider

Then:

module.exports = {
  networks: {
    development: {
      host: 'localhost',
      port: 8545,
      network_id: '*' // Match any network id
    },
    ropsten: {
      provider: new HDWalletProvider(mnemonic, "https://ropsten.infura.io/wefbowufweufbweu"), // The actual api key infura gave you
      network_id: '3'
    }
  }
}

This example uses Ropsten, but changing it to Rinkeby should be trivial, just make sure you are using the url Infura gave you with the correct api key and network_id 4 instead of 3
