Deploying Treebook to Heroku

When I try to deploy my Treebook to Heroku, and use the 'heroku run rake db:migrate' I get the following error: Running rake db:migrate attached to terminal... up, run.6085 /usr/bin/env: ruby.exe: No such file or directory

As shown in the video, I am however stuck on the first "error displayed" on my application site.

" Application Error

An error occurred in the application and your page could not be served. Please try again in a few moments.

If you are the application owner, check your logs for details. "

What am I doing wrong :?

It looks like you may need to update the first line of bin/rake to be #!/usr/bin/env ruby. You may want to go ahead and update the first line in bin/bundle and bin/rails as well to make sure you don't run into similar problems on other scripts on heroku as well.

Could I get something a bit more descriptive and newbie friendly O:)?

Sure thing - sorry about that.

You'll want to fire the project up in your editor and look for a file in the bin folder called rake. The first line of that file should look like this:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby.exe

You want to change that first line to be:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

Then you'll commit it to your repo and push it up to heroku just like in the videos. You want to repeat this with the files called rails and bundle in the bin folder.
