Question

Ok so got through my last problem with the difference between Postgresql and SQLite and seems like Heroku is telling me I have another one. I am new to ruby and rails so a lot of this stuff I can’t decipher at first. Looking for a little direction here. The error message and PostsController Index are below. I checked my routes.rb file and all seems well there but I could be missing something. I will post if you need.

Processing PostsController#index (for 99.7.50.140 at 2010-04-23 15:19:22) [GET]

              FROM pg_attribute a LEFT JOIN pg_attrdef d
                ON a.attrelid = d.adrelid AND a.attnum = d.adnum
             WHERE a.attrelid = '"tags"'::regclass
               AND a.attnum > 0 AND NOT a.attisdropped
             ORDER BY a.attnum
):

What all gems are used by this Rails app? Do you have a .gems manifest file in the root of the app for heroku to auto detect and install? i see that you are using will paginate gem. If you haven’t added the gems to the .gems file then i guess thats the trouble. If you haven’t done that then this would be the best place to look for help: Heroku | Managing Gems
