getting started (not) with Heroku: App not found

Question

This should be simple, and I swear it was working an hour ago. I can log in to Heroku, but can't run any useful commands:

$ heroku login Enter your Heroku credentials. Email: [email protected] Password:  $ heroku stack App not found $ heroku config App not found 

Perhaps this is the source of the problem?

$ git remote show heroku !  No such app as empty-samurai-345 fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly 

empty-samuri-345 was an app I deleted earlier. All I really want to do is upload a new app using the bamboo-mri-1.9.2 stack.

Thanks in advance for suggestions...

Answer 1

You need to remove the heroku remote in git using this command:

git remote rm heroku 

Then you can add a new remote using this one:

git remote add heroku [email protected]:your-app.git 

Then try running your heroku commands.

Answer 2

Run the following

git config -l 

The config key is easy to spot, remote.heroku.url.

Now if your comfortable editing the config directly, just:

git config -e 

If not:

# Confirm you've got the right key git config remote.heroku.url # Substitute your_app_name appropriately git config remote.heroku.url [email protected]:your_app_name.git 

My answer is based off fearless_fool's comment, which lacks much detail.

FYI: The config file is located in /your_git_repo/.git/config
