Error: The method being requested is not available on this server

FabricioMatos

Noob question - I'm probably failing in the setup.
I can create contracts using AlethZero and send new transaction to them, but loading some test html into AlethZero in order to use ethereum.js, I can't connect to the Ethereum local node.

My code is shomething like:

    var web3 = require('ethereum.js');
    web3.setProvider(new web3.providers.HttpProvider());

    var source = ...

    var myContract;
    var address = web3.eth.sendTransaction({data: web3.eth.compile.solidity(source)}),
        Contract = web3.eth.contract(desc);

At this point I get the error:

Error: METHOD_NOT_FOUND: The method being requested is not available on this server ethereum.js:2852
send ethereum.js:2852
send ethereum.js:2579

What I'm missing here?

Last time I checked the Solidity compilation is not yet implemented. You can use this site (https://chriseth.github.io/cpp-ethereum/) to compile the code and send the byte code and your ABI.

web3.setProvider(new web3.providers.HttpProvider()); on this line we have to give the host name and port on which ethereum node is running.

var web3 = require('web3')
web3.setProvider(new web3.providers.HttpProvider('http://localhost:8080'));

Try this.

We already have a node web service integrated with ethereum js.

geth is the standard, cpp is quite behind with matching the latest RPC. and web3.js is always according to the specs of the RPC.

did you got the solution?
