RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded when try Compilation in Solidity

Question

When I try to execute in console

node compile.js

I get this error.

RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded when try Compilation in Solidity

Invox.sol:

pragma solidity  ^0.4.25;

contract Invox {
    string public message;

    function Invox (string initialmessage) public {
        message = initialmessage;
    }
    function setMessage(string _message) public {
        message = _message;  
    }
}

compile.js:

const path = require('path');
const fs = require('fs');
const solc = require('solc');
const invoxPath = path.resolve(__dirname, 'contracts', 'invox.sol');
const source = fs.readFileSync(invoxPath, 'utf8');
//We have replaced the following line, but the issue persists
module.compile = solc.compile(source, 1).contracts[':Invox'];
//console.log(solc.compile(source, 1));

package.json:

{
  "name": "invox",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "author": "",
  "license": "ISC",
  "description": "",
  "dependencies": {
    "solc": "^0.4.25"
  }
}

Can you share your package.json? most likely it is a solc version issue. — Iftifar Taz

@IftifarTaz I have installed version 6.10.2 of solc but still giving the same error I am blocked — Fernando López

With the code provided it compiles for me. and always use solc version same as pragma solidity in contract. — Iftifar Taz

I got too excited. This did not work either. I still don't really know what the problem is. — Fernando López

npm install --save [email protected]

run the above command and change the solidity version in your invox.sol

pragma solidity ^0.4.25; -> pragma solidity ^0.4.17;

Oh great it worked! ... Now it's time to fix the error of installing npm install --save web3@^1.0.0-beta.36 There is no way to find a solution.

Maybe your nodejs version is too high.

I met this problem when node v12.16.0 is used. However, when I switched it to v8.5.0, everything works well.

Thanks for answare me. My version is "solc": "^0.4.25"... You can see that in JSON file.

We have replaced the following line, but the issue persists: module.compile = solc.compile(source, 1).contracts[':Invox']
