Question

I’ve tried:

heroku rake db:migrate

and

heroku pg:push

The first gives me a PGerror / rake aborted error.

Is there a way to completely rebuild/reset my database with heroku? I can’t seem to find it in their documentation.

EDIT: I had a working database before this, but my tables and relationships have changed.

Answer 1

If you had a working database, you could recreate your tables from the schema:

heroku run rake db:schema:load

If you want to just reset the database to empty:

heroku run rake db:create

What is the error it is giving you? It might be more helpful to try to solve that problem rather than wipe everything.
