Procfile declares types -> (none) in Heroku
django, heroku, python-2.7
Solution
Your Procfile needs to be in the root of your git repository that is pushed to Heroku.
Problem
I'm stuck in running a Django 1.4 app on Heroku via Procfile. I've read all the related posts and I'm sure this is not a case sensitive related issue as I named correctly to Procfile. This is my project structure. Notice Procfile is at the same level that manage.py ``` . ├── README.md ├── docs ├── project │ ├── Procfile │ ├── client │ │ ├── __init__.py │ │ ├── __init__.pyc │ │ ├── models.py │ │ ├── templates │ │ │ └── welcome.html │ │ ├── tests.py │ │ ├── views.py │ │ └── views.pyc │ ├── manage.py │ └── wings │ ├── __init__.py │ ├── __init__.pyc │ ├── settings.py │ ├── settings.pyc │ ├── urls.py │ ├── urls.pyc │ ├── wsgi.py │ └── wsgi.pyc ├── requirements.txt ├── static │ ├── css │ ├── images │ └── js ├── tests └── uploads ``` Here is the Procfile: ``` web:python manage.py runserver ``` Here the output of foreman running it locally (works fine) ``` 10:29:28 web.1 | started with pid 595 ``` I'm getting this on the push to heroku: ``` Procfile declares types -> (none) ``` Trying to scale it via heroku toolbelt: ``` $ heroku ps:scale web=1 --app myapp Scaling web processes... failed ! Record not found. ``` I always create my apps via web, so I need always to put the --app argument. Might be any issue related to how I create my apps? I also tried the following: ``` MacBook-Pro-de-Sergio:myapp sergio$ heroku run python project/manage.py runserver Running `python project/manage.py runserver` attached to terminal... up, run.1 Validating models... 0 errors found Django version 1.4, using settings 'wings.settings' Development server is running at http://127.0.0.1:8000/ Quit the server with CONTROL-C. ``` This are the logs of my app: ``` 2012-07-18T09:18:51+00:00 heroku[run.1]: Starting process with command `python project/manage.py runserver` 2012-07-18T09:18:51+00:00 heroku[run.1]: State changed from starting to up 2012-07-18T09:19:16+00:00 heroku[router]: Error H14 (No web processes running) -> GET peoplewings.herokuapp.com/ dyno= queue= wait= service= status=503 bytes= 2012-07-18T09:19:16+00:00 heroku[router]: Error H14 (No web processes running) -> GET peoplewings.herokuapp.com/favicon.ico dyno= queue= wait= service= status=503 bytes= ``` Answer As Neil pointed out Procfile should be in the root of git repo. I also had to set the host and port on Procfile as default web server points to 127.0.0.1:8000 which will not work on heroku ``` web: python project/manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:$PORT ```
