Solidity | Truffle | Web3 | Gas Limit

Question

I am trying to deploy a contact using below code on rinkeby test net:

    const result = await new web3.eth.Contract(JSON.parse(interface))
        .deploy({data: bytecode, arguments: [100, accounts[0]]})
        .send({gas: 1000000, from: accounts[0]});

Attempting to deploy from acount  0xBE80D3f83530f2Ed1214BE5a7434E0cd32177047
(node:3862) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection (rejection id: 1): Error: The contract code couldn't be stored, please check your gas limit.

When I increase the gas limit to 10000000
I get below error. Not able to understand what is wrong with the deployment

You're exceeding the gas limit. You may be doing too much work on your constructor, or you're just sending a gas limit that is too low.

Rinkeby gas limit is around 7.4M, so you can try increasing the gas from: 1M to ~7.4M.

If your contract is to big, you can split it into multiple contracts, or as I said before reduce the work being done on the constructor.
