Hi, having trouble compiling app on Heroku, see error below. I’ve followed the directions at Heroku. My lib/book_list/repo.ex file is appended.

ERRORS:

remote: == Compilation error in file lib/book_list/repo.ex ==
remote: ** (ArgumentError) missing :adapter configuration in config :book_list, BookList.Repo
remote:     lib/ecto/repo/supervisor.ex:70: Ecto.Repo.Supervisor.compile_config/2

lib/booklist/repo.ex:

defmodule BookList.Repo do
  use Ecto.Repo, otp_app: :book_list

  @doc """
  Dynamically loads the repository url from the
  DATABASE_URL environment variable.
  """
  def init(_, opts) do
    {:ok, Keyword.put(opts, :url, System.get_env("DATABASE_URL"))}
  end
end

Looks like you are missing the ecto adapter config. The readme has an example here: https://github.com/elixir-ecto/ecto/blob/master/README.md but you can also set it in your config

Hi, what is confusing me is that I have the code below config/prod.exs:

config :book_list, BookListWeb.Endpoint,
  load_from_system_env: true,
  url: [scheme: "https", host: "mysterious-meadow-6277.herokuapp.com", port: 443],
  force_ssl: [rewrite_on: [:x_forwarded_proto]],  cache_static_manifest: "priv/static/cache_manifest.json",
  secret_key_base: Map.fetch!(System.get_env(), "SECRET_KEY_BASE")


config :book_list, Hello.Repo,
  adapter: Ecto.Adapters.Postgres,
  url: System.get_env("DATABASE_URL"),
  pool_size: String.to_integer(System.get_env("POOL_SIZE") || "10"),
  ssl: true
4

That configures an adapter for Hello.Repo, not BookList.Repo.

Well, the app deployed, but now I get runaway error messages:

These scroll past at a high rate.

– no idea what do do here.

The app works fine locally. — I’m checking a possible inconsistency in the config.

Can you check if DATABASE_URL is properly set during application boot?

Have you provisioned a postgres database on Heroku?

Also if you run heroku config from the project directory you should see a list of environment variables that will include a DATABASE_URL if you have a provisioned database for this Heroku Aplication.
