Hyperledger fabcar sample fabric error sendPeersProposal - Promise is rejected Error Connect Failed

Question

I am getting the following error when I am trying to install hyperledger and run chaincode. I am following the steps from here. 

error: [client-utils.js]: sendPeersProposal - Promise is rejected: Error: Connect Failed

while running the query.js. I have following active docker running

Answer 1

The problem is with the connection. 

First, find out the IP address of the system:

$ ifconfig

Then replace localhosts in query.js with IP that you found with the previous command

Example:

@@ -12,7 +12,7 @@ var options = {
     user_id: 'PeerAdmin',
     channel_id: 'mychannel',
     chaincode_id: 'fabcar',
   network_url: 'grpc://<IP address>:7051',
};

Hi. I am new to Linux and when I run ifconfig, I am getting 2 IP address, which should I use?

Hi @Rashmi. A system can have more than one IP address depending on the number of interfaces. Could mention the name of the interface or maybe share a screenshot?

I think I have 2 interfaces. One is named lo and the other is named eth0. Which should I use?

---

lo is a loopback address and eth0 is ethernet. Use the IP address for the interface eth0.

Answer 2

Try to install nom first and then run node query.js.

$ npm install

When I run this, I am getting the following error:

warning :npm WARN fabcar@1.0.0 No repository field.

Answer 3

Open the datasources.json file and replace the grpcs:// with grpc://.

This solution worked for me.
