Question

I have a Rails 3.2 app that I’ve created and want to deploy it on Heroku.

I created a new session on the cedar stack and pushed up my app to it.

However, when I try to migrate the DB I get deprecation warnings.

I ran the migrate commend with the --trace command and here’s what it gave me:

** Invoke db:migrate (first_time)
** Invoke environment (first_time)
** Execute environment
rake aborted!

Tasks: TOP => db:migrate => environment

My app works fine locally.

Here’s my gem file:

source 'https://rubygems.org'

gem 'rails', '3.2.2'

# Bundle edge Rails instead:
# gem 'rails', :git => 'git://github.com/rails/rails.git'

group :production do
  gem 'thin'
  gem 'pg'
end

group :development, :test do
    gem 'sqlite3'
end

# Gems used only for assets and not required
# in production environments by default.
group :assets do
  gem 'sass-rails',   '~> 3.2.3'
  gem 'coffee-rails', '~> 3.2.1'
  # See https://github.com/sstephenson/execjs#readme for more supported runtimes
  gem 'therubyracer', '~> 0.9.2'
  gem 'bootstrap-sass'
  gem 'uglifier', '>= 1.0.3'
  gem 'twitter-bootstrap-rails', '2.0.2'
  gem 'simple_form'
  gem 'fog'
end

gem 'jquery-rails'

# To use ActiveModel has_secure_password
# gem 'bcrypt-ruby', '~> 3.0.0'

# To use Jbuilder templates for JSON
# gem 'jbuilder'

# Use unicorn as the app server
# gem 'unicorn'

# Deploy with Capistrano
# gem 'capistrano'

# To use debugger
# gem 'ruby-debug19', :require => 'ruby-debug'

Answer 1

move the simple_form gem outside your :assets group – mine is under the jquery-rails gem reference then make sure you run this command locally in your console before pushing to heroku:

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake assets:precompile

hope that helps!
