Heroku does not use the SQLlite database. You have to use Heroku’s shared postgresql database since heroku is a ‘production’ environment.
When you push a django app up to heroku, it overrides your database settings in your settings.py file. You have to do a syncdb or south migration to your production postresql database your app now uses.
Btw – you will need to install postgres on your devel environment and pip install psycopg2 for postgres/python support.
