I have created a local git repository called phantomjs123 and I'm trying to deploy to Heroku:
me#my-PC /f/EasyPHP-12.1/www/phantomjs123 (master)
$ heroku apps
=== My Apps
phantomjs123
protected-waters-9718
serene-mesa-1437
As you can see 2 additional apps have been created. I tried to delete them but when I do
me#my-PC /f/EasyPHP-12.1/www/phantomjs123 (master)
$ ls
bin nbproject procfile
They don't appear to exist locally. Can someone explain what these other apps are and how to remove them?
To destroy apps on Heroku you can do:
heroku apps:destroy <APPNAME>
Mind you, they would only exist as a result of doing a heroku create.

When I try to disable static files on Heroku it keeps linking to a previous project. However, I deleted all my Heroku projects so there are none in my account.
How is this possible and how do I fix it? The heroku CLI seems to be trying to find vast-depths-55781 but the project I just created is immense-ridge-40969:
Heroku determines which app it should use based on your configured Git remotes.
Run git remote -v to see which ones you have set up; I suspect you'll see one pointing to vast-depths-59781. Remove it by its name, e.g.
git remote remove heroku
You could manually add a remote for your new app (or have just changed the previous one's URL), but Heroku provides a dedicated command for setting this up:
heroku git:remote --app immense-ridge-40969
Now heroku commands should default to the new app in that folder. (You can always provide the --app argument to tell heroku to operate against a different app if you wish.)
I'm trying to run commands for my heroku app in my console, but it keeps telling me "Couldn't find that app." even though when I run heroku apps in my console it tells me I have one app called worldofwarcraft-api
So heroku recognizes my app in the apps list, but I can't run any commands to access it. The line I want to run is
heroku ps:scale web=1 --app worldofwarcraft-api
I'm trying to troubleshoot why my API returns a 503 when I try to make a GET request to it. This is the fix the heroku faq told me to try, but it's just telling me it can't find my app.
I'm wondering if it has something to do with the fact that I deployed my API from github, rather than running the heroku setup in my console. I don't know if that would effect my ability to run heroku commands on the app in my local console.
Apologies if my formatting is off a bit. I'm still getting used to this site.
In my case, someone renamed GitHub repo and I tried to find Heroku app with new GitHub name
It helps me
heroku apps
heroku git:remote -a YOUR_APP
Solved it. Just sharing for future searches.
The issue was fixed by running git init and then heroku git:remote -a worldofwarcraft-api in my command line while inside my repositories folder. This initialized git in the repo and then set the heroku git remote to that repository.
Hopefully, this helps anyone else who had a similar issue.
Just an easy way to solve this issue:
1st: Add the command into your terminal: $ heroku apps
If you already logged into your heroku account from your terminal, all your apps will appear as a list like this:
your-project-name-1
your-project-name-2
your-project-name-3
your-project-name-4
2nd: Then chose which one you are needing to connect with the following command:
$ heroku git:remote -a your-project-name-2
If you've done the connection properly you'll receive the following output:
set git remote heroku to https://git.heroku.com/your-project-name-2.git
For my case, I was renaming my github repository.
You can find it in your repository settings then just rename it, it appears in the first place.
Then you can continue with git init again to re-initiate your existing git repository and then set your heroku remote with your heroku apps new name heroku git:remote -a YOUR_APP_NAME
If the app belongs to a team that you participate in, you have to specify the team option in the commands to see the app:
E.g:
heroku apps -t <team name>
or
heroku ps:scale web=1 --app worldofwarcraft-api -t <team name>
I have two git branches, staging and production, and I deployed them on Heroku in the same Heroku acccount. Suppose my app names are app1.heroku-app.com and app2.heroku-app.com and the remote names are heroku-staging and heroku-production,respectively. I deployed both apps on Heroku. After I login to Heroku from the console using heroku login and then try to access a Rails console using heroku run rails c, I get this message :
▸ multiple apps in git remotes
▸ remotes: heroku-staging heroku-production
How can I access a console?
If there's only one Heroku remote, heroku can infer which you want. When there are multiple (or if you want to access an application that doesn't have a remote in this Git repo, or when you're not in a Git repo at all), you need to use the --app option to specify which application you want a console on.
$ heroku --help
Usage: heroku COMMAND [--app APP] [command-specific-options]
$ heroku run rails c --app app1
$ heroku run rails c --app app2
In addition to being able to specify the app as a per-command flag, if you'd like for there to be a default environment, setting the environment variable HEROKU_APP to the app you want will make it so that heroku commands don't rely on git config.
$ heroku logs
› Error: Multiple apps in git remotes
...
$ export HEROKU_APP=app1

I've an existing project that works fine on another machine, but I've just upgraded and from within the project development directory, everytime I run a heroku command I have to post-fix it with --app
I feel like I've missed an application setup stage, but I can't figure out what, as everytime it states:
Run this command from an app folder or specify which app to use with --app APP.
Help appreciated.
You can solve this by adding the Heroku app to your .git/config folder.
If you are in the root of your project, run the following command:
git remote add heroku git#heroku.com:appname.git
This will set a line in your .git/config file which the heroku command line tool uses to figure out what app you're using :)
In other words, your local repo doesn't have Heroku app URL configured against an app name
Similarly what we do with git remote add ( we pass git URL as a destination for push/pulling of code )
that how our git know which repo/URL to hit (push/pull from )
Heroku also follows the same method/process.
All you have to do is add Heroku app URL (so that ur Heroku command have a reference for app URL )
it will know against which URL you are running your command against
To confirm if remote named Heroku has been set for your app:
git remote -v
if not configured or if you want it for an existing app
heroku git:remote -a app_name
it's a way to link your folder to the Heroku app
The Heroku recommended way:
heroku git:remote -a my-heroku-app-id -r what-i-want-to-call-it
Source: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/git
Run this command from an app folder or specify which app to use with --app APP
The other answers address the first part of that statement, it is perfectly acceptable to run heroku commands in any directory. For example I have a customer facing front end project /front-end and a rails based /back-end project. I often work in the /front-end directory and if I have to connect to the production database I'll run heroku run rails c -a back-end. After I exit irb then I'm back in my desired directory.
I currently have the latest version of my code on another computer that I want to develop from (Home computer and laptop for when I'm out and about) I set up heroku for my app on my laptop. Now I need to associate my code on my desktop so that I can push to heroku from there as well.
This is what I get from my desktop:
desktop:~/NetBeansProjects/onlinescheduler$ git pull heroku master
fatal: 'heroku' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
I can't do heroku create because that will create a separate app. How do I associated the existing code with (or pull down a brand new version from) heroku?
Whats the command to do this?
Also, If you've never used heroku before on the other machine, you'll need to do a few more things first:
$ gem install heroku
$ heroku login
[then enter your credentials]
$ heroku keys:add [path to keyfile]
Now you can clone the remote repository:
$ git clone git#heroku.com:<heroku_app>.git <local_directory>
First of all, you'll want to follow the Quick Start instructions for Heroku, which you can get straight from the horse's mouth, right here: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/quickstart
Once you've gotten through step 3, come back here.
Then, you can type this into the command line:
heroku git:clone -a myapp
This is described here:
https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/git-clone-heroku-app
Then, if you want to grab the database too, here are some options.
Newer Heroku instructions on import/export:
https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-postgres-import-export
Older heroku instructions on push and pull: https://blog.heroku.com/archives/2009/3/18/push_and_pull_databases_to_and_from_heroku
If you are using mongo, this is a useful tool to sync your mongo database: https://github.com/pedro/heroku-mongo-sync#readme
If you first need to get the app from Heroku, clone your app.
To do that, write in your Terminal:
heroku git:clone -a your_app_name
If you already have the app and the remote to heroku follow the next steps. If not, you can check instructions here https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/git
Find the name of your database
Write in your Terminal:
heroku pg:info -a your_app_name
it will look something like this:
HEROKU_POSTGRESQL_MAROON_URL
Find the name of your local database
In your Rails app go to config/database.yml
it will look something like this:
your_app_name_development
Clone your production database (PostgreSQL)
Write in your Terminal with your own database names:
heroku pg:pull HEROKU_POSTGRESQL_MAROON_URL your_app_name_development -a your_app_name
HEROKU_POSTGRESQL_MAROON_URL is an example of how could be the name of your production database (in Heroku):
my_app_name_development is the name of your development database (locally)
the_name_of_my_app is the name of your app in Heroku
Don't forget to finish this with bundle install...
If you already have your code base ready and have heroku setup, use:
$ heroku git:remote -a your_heroku_app
This will allow you to deploy from your new location.

Once you create a key in a new computer, you have to upload your new SSH key by typing heroku keys:add.
