Following this tutorial, I applied the steps for deploying to Heroku under 2.3.5 Deploying the demo app.

When I run the command: > heroku rake db:migrate, I get the following:

$ heroku rake db:migrate
(in /app)
rake aborted!

Why is that? And, how can I solve this issue?

Thanks.

I have a blog post about it here:

http://codeglot.com/posts/13-you_have_already_activated_rake_0_9_2

You have two options. Keep the latest gem and do this:

# Add your own tasks in files placed in lib/tasks ending in .rake,
# for example lib/tasks/capistrano.rake, and they will automatically be available to Rake.

require File.expand_path('../config/application', __FILE__)
require 'rake/dsl_definition'
require 'rake'

Or you need to specify the older version of rake:

gem list

Then see which version of rake you have.

gem uninstall rake -v=0.9.1

Then in your bundler specify the older version:

gem 'rake', '0.8.7'

This link may help: fix unitialized constant rake heroku

Form that post:

Put this in your Rakefile above require 'rake':

require 'rake/dsl_definition'
