I’m getting an error when deploying my app to Heroku. After looking 3 days looking for a solution, it seams like a common error, but I did not find a solution yet. My application is running perfectly fine on my computer which is running :
- Mac OSX 10.7.3 with ruby
- ruby ruby 1.9.2p320 (2012-04-20 revision 35421) [x86_64-darwin11.3.0]
- rubygem 1.3.7.1 (also tested with 1.8.24)
My Heroky app is on a cedar stack with addons: MongoHQ MongoHQ Free, Shared Database 5MB.
- heroku run gem –version gives: 1.3.7
- heroku run ruby –version gives: ruby 1.9.2p290 (2011-07-09 revision 32553) [x86_64-linux]
The error I get when I push my app on Heroky is:
lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb:229:in `block in constantize': uninitialized constant User (NameError)
More information: I’m using mongoid with mongohq and devise. I believe this comes from devise because I use it on my User model. Note that my app/models/User.rb file is commited and that there is no typo between User and Users in my application. I’m not requiring “active_record/railtie” in my config/application.rb file because I’m using mongoid. Thus my User model is not extending ActiveRecord::Base, but this must be perfectly fine.
I really hope someone could help me because I’m stuck on this issue for too long and I’m completely new to Heroku 🙂 Thank you very much in advance !
Here is my app’s Gemfile:

Solution: if your User model is in
app/model/User.rbthen rename this file toapp/model/user.rbso that the file is lower case.
