I don't see a question here, just a copy/pasted error message.

Apologies. I was trying to figure out what was causing this issue so I could remedy it and I forgot to put it into question form. It was ultimately a migration issue and I fixed it by doing rake db:reset.

For others I fixed my issue by running rake db:reset then rake db:migrate. you may have to put bundle exec in front of those commands.
