Please could someone help me understand what has gone wrong, and how I can lookout/debug these things in the future. I have set-up a RefineryCMS app in Rails, worked on it, uploaded it to Heroku and have had both the local and remote copies working fine. After a period of about a month I return to the local copy to work on it, but it won't load. I can't understand why as nothing has changed. I tried deleting the local copy and cloning again from heroku but same issue exists. The error code is below when I try and create a rails server locally to run the app.
I would welcome help with the error, and perhaps how to spot/avoid these things in the future
