  1. PORails 4 and Heroku - rake assets:precompile trying to call Postgres
    text
    copied!<p>So I've spent a day on this and read every SO question even mildly related, and checked the Heroku docs.</p> <p>This is an Heroku issue when pushing: </p> <pre><code>-----&gt; Preparing app for Rails asset pipeline Running: rake assets:precompile rake aborted! could not connect to server: Connection refused Is the server running on host "127.0.0.1" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432? </code></pre> <p>I'm sure it's familiar. </p> <p>A lot of stuff changed with Heroku deployment on Rails 4 I am aware, but I even tried many of the pre 4.0 suggestions to try and fix it.</p> <p>Its: </p> <pre><code> /tmp/build_22xpuyyrmltz6/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.0.0/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:825:in `initialize' /tmp/build_22xpuyyrmltz6/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.0.0/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:825:in `new' /tmp/build_22xpuyyrmltz6/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.0.0/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:825:in `connect' /tmp/build_22xpuyyrmltz6/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.0.0/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:542:in `initialize' /tmp/build_22xpuyyrmltz6/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.0.0/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:41:in `new' /tmp/build_22xpuyyrmltz6/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.0.0/gems/activerecord-4.0.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:41:in `postgresql_connection' </code></pre> <p>etc... so from what I gather this is because is trying to access the db during compile time.</p> <p>My question so far is a carbon copy of <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16432825/heroku-precompile-assets-failed-on-rail-4-app">this question</a></p> <pre><code>RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake assets:precompile </code></pre> <p>Runs fine and the manifest.json is generated, yet Heroku doesn't recognise it.</p> <p>I also tried this, but I think Rails 4 is false by default anyway.</p> <pre><code>config.assets.initialize_on_precompile = false </code></pre> <p>So then a workaround-ish thing I was happy to try was:</p> <pre><code>heroku labs:enable user-env-compile </code></pre> <p>and I tried this the most, created new heroku apps, toggled it on and off and on again. Tried multiple pushes. I was committing when needed as well so it wasn't that.</p> <p>also tried rails_12factor and some other stuff I can't remember. All to no avail.</p> <p>Is there something I'm missing? user-env-compile seems to be solving everybody else's problems but seemingly has no effect for me.</p> <p>I've even restarted my computer a few times... any help would be appreciated.</p>
