Does anyone know why? i'm using Ganache CLI v6.0.3 (ganache-core: 2.0.2) Thanks !

EDIT. here is my truffle.js

module.exports = {
  networks: {
    development: {
        host: "localhost",
        port: 8545,
        network_id: "5777" // Match any network id
      }
  }
};

You could try specifying the gas amount directly in truffle.js. I have this:

development: {
            host: "localhost",
            port: 8545,
            gas: 5600000,
            gasPrice: 10000000000,
            network_id: "*" // Match any network id
        }

One options is also to specify gas limits in the migration scripts for the deployment but as far as I've understood, that either has no effect or it's not recommended.
