Question

I get the following error message: Getting Error:VM Exception while processing transaction: revert', 'code': -32000 I am connected to Ganache. Here is my code:

Greeter = web3.eth.contract(abi=abi,bytecode=bytecode)
tx_hash=Greeter.constructor().transact()

This is my Solidity contract:

pragma solidity ^0.4.21;
contract Greeter {
    string public greeting;
    function Greeter () public {
        greeting ="Hello";
    }
    function setGreeting (string _greeting ) public {
        greeting = _greeting;
    }
    function greet()view public returns (string){
        return greeting;
    }
}

The last statement: tx_hash=Greeter.constructor().transact() doesn't compile.

What am I doing wrong? Thank you in advance :)

Edit: Added a ")" at web3 = Web3(Web3.HTTPProvider(ganache_url)) according to Majd TL's suggestion.

Answer 1

ok I figured it out: My solidity code had some problems. Using this one compiling with 0.5.7 worked.

   pragma solidity ^0.5.0;

    contract MessageContract{
        string private message = "Hello World";

        function getMessage() public view returns(string memory){
           return message;
        }

        function setMessage(string memory newMessage ) public {
           message = newMessage;
        }
    }
