I wrote a contract A that creates a new contract B and returns the address of the new contract B that's been created. When I tested this on solidity browser it seems to work well, but when I tried to run the create method using web3, I keep getting this error: throw errors.InvalidResponse(result); ^ Error: VM Exception while processing transaction: out of gas Here's my contract code: pragma solidity ^0.4.2; contract B { int public id; function B(int _id) { id = _id; } } contract A { address Baddress; function createB(int _id) returns (address) { Baddress = new B(_id); return Baddress; } } Here's my Javascript code that attempts to run A's createB method: web3.eth.defaultAccount = web3.eth.coinbase; var Acontract = web3.eth.contract([{"constant":false,"inputs":[],"name":"getdum","outputs":[{"name":"","type":"address"}],"payable":false,"type":"function"},{"constant":false,"inputs":[{"name":"num","type":"int256"}],"name":"create","outputs":[],"payable":false,"type":"function"}]); var A = Acontract.new({from: web3.eth.accounts[0], data: '{{compiled byte code}}', gas: '47000000'}, function (e, contract){ console.log(e, contract); if (typeof contract.address !== 'undefined') { console.log('Contract mined! address: ' + contract.address); contract.create(5000).then(console.log); // This line throws the error } }) I've read many other related posts and could only find answers that suggest to use more gas, but no matter how much gas I sent with the transaction, it would throw the same error. You can see I'm using a really large value for gas in the code. Can anyone help me identify what I'm doing wrong? I'm using solc Version: 0.4.9+commit.364da425.Darwin.appleclang, EthereumJS TestRPC v3.0.3, and node v6.4.0.
