Rails 3.1 Deployment to Heroku Error

deployment, heroku, initializer, ruby-on-rails, ruby-on-rails-3.1

Solution

The Heroku stack needs to be migrated, you can run this command to do so:

heroku stack:migrate bamboo-mri-1.9.2 

I was running 1.9.2 locally, which is why it was working locally. But on Heroku, it was running 1.8.7.

Problem

I'm trying to deploy my app to Heroku, I've done this before on my Windows machine, and now I am currently using a mac. I'm trying to use Postgresql for the first time. I have the following in my Gemfile: ``` gem 'pg' ``` EDIT: ``` AndrewDavis-OSX:lunchbox ardavis$ rvm list rvm rubies => ruby-1.9.2-p180 [ x86_64 ] AndrewDavis-OSX:lunchbox ardavis$ heroku rake db:migrate rake aborted! /app/config/initializers/session_store.rb:3: syntax error, unexpected ':', expecting $end App::Application.config.session_store :cookie_store, key: '_app_session' ^ (See full trace by running task with --trace) (in /app) ``` As you can see, I am running ruby 1.9.2. And there is the error for my heroku migration. EDIT 2: Just created a brand new rails app using Rails 3.1.rc1. I set the gemfile to include group :production do gem 'therubyracer-heroku', '0.8.1.pre3' gem 'pg' end I did a quick git init, commited, then 'heroku create' and 'git push heroku master'. Those all work just fine. However the problem is when I try 'heroku rake db:migrate'. I get the same error that you see above. TEMP FIX EDIT: So... if I change my config/initializers/session_store.rb from ``` App::Application.config.session_store :cookie_store, key: '_app_session' ``` to ``` App::Application.config.session_store :cookie_store, :key => '_app_session' ``` and change my config/initializers/wrap_parameters.rb from ``` ActionController::Base.wrap_parameters format: [:json] ``` to ``` ActionController::Base.wrap_parameters :format => [:json] ``` Then I'm able to do 'heroku rake db:migrate' just fine. Anyone care to explain why this works locally the original way, without any modification of the colons/hashes? The original way is the generated default from doing 'rails new myApp'
