I have started geth node (connect to ropsten testnet) on my local OSX system.
Command: geth --testnet --fast --bootnodes "enode://20c9ad97c081d63397d7b685a412227a40e23c8bdc6688c6f37e97cfbc22d2b4d1db1510d8f61e6a8866ad7f0e17c02b14182d37ea7c3c8b9c2683aeb6b733a1@52.169.14.227:30303,enode://6ce05930c72abc632c58e2e4324f7c7ea478cec0ed4fa2528982cf34483094e9cbc9216e7aa349691242576d552a2a56aaeae426c5303ded677ce455ba1acd9d@13.84.180.240:30303" --datadir data--ws --wsport 8546 --wsorigins "*" --rpc --rpcport 8545 --rpccorsdomain "*" --nodiscover --ws --wsport 8546
Geth node is not in block synchronization status
eth.syncing => false
Geth version : 1.8.11-stable
XXX-iMac:~ XXXXX$ geth version Geth Version: 1.8.11-stable Architecture: amd64 Protocol Versions: [63 62] Network Id: 1 Go Version: go1.10.3 Operating System: darwin GOPATH= GOROOT=/usr/local/Cellar/go/1.10.3/libexec Web3 version:

Javascript code Running on Node environment
var web3 = new Web3( new Web3.providers.WebsocketProvider('ws://127.0.0.1:8546') ); const contractAbi =[...]; const contractAddress = 'xxxxx'; const contractInstance = new web3.eth.Contract(contractAbi, contractAddress); var res = contractInstance.methods.currentTicket.call((err, result) => { if (err) { console.log("error getting currentTicket", err); } else { console.log("success getting currentTicket", result); } }); Here currentTicket is a variable containing an integer value. Nothing is called, I looked for several github issues ticket and nothing helped me! Any kind of help will be appreciate!
UPDATE1:
I looked for below web3 issues ticket, but nothing helped me!
https://github.com/ethereum/web3.js/issues/989
https://github.com/ethereum/web3.js/issues/1093
UPDATE2:
Getting on front end works well.
async function callAsync(f, params) { if (!params) params = []; return new Promise((resolve, reject) => { f(...params, function(err, res){ if (err) reject(err); resolve(res); }); }); } const contract = web3.eth.contract(contractAbi); const contractInstance = contract.at(contractAddress); currentTicket = (await callAsync(contractInstance.currentTicket.call)).c[0];
