I am new to flask/Heroku and deploying an app using postgres/sqlalchemy. I am using flask-migrate (built on alembic) for db migrations. Everythign works fine locally even when starting with foreman but i am unable to get things running on the Heroku server. I believe it has something to do with the DB connection and and Flask-migrate but im not sure. Been at this for hours and and scoured SO to no avail. I know im making a stupid mistake.
Error before Installing Heroku Postgres -
OperationalError: Could not connect to server: Connection refused Is the server running on host "localhost" (127.0.0.1) and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
Error after Heroku Postgres install -
2014-05-16T21:26:14.408879+00:00 app[web.1]: Is the server running on host "localhost" (127.0.0.1) and accepting

Here is my project structure
myproject/
-app
-__init__.py
-forms.py
-helper.py
-views.py
-models.py
-static/
-templates/
-config.py
-run.py
-Procfile
-requirements.txt
-migrations/
Here is my init.py:
from flask import Flask
from flask.ext.sqlalchemy import SQLAlchemy
from flask.ext.script import Manager, Server
from flask.ext.migrate import Migrate, MigrateCommand
from flask.ext.admin import Admin
app = Flask(__name__)
app.config.from_object('config')
db = SQLAlchemy(app)
admin = Admin(app)
migrate = Migrate(app, db)
manager = Manager(app)
manager.add_command('db', MigrateCommand)
from app import views, models, forms, helper
Here is my config.py file:
import os
DEBUG = True
basedir = os.path.abspath(os.path.dirname(__file__))
CSRF_ENABLED = True
CSRF_SESSION_KEY = '**********'
ADMINS = frozenset(['myemail'])
SECRET_KEY = '*******'
if os.environ.get('DATABSE_URL') is None:
SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI = 'postgresql+psycopg2://******@localhost/myproject'
else:
SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI = os.environ['DATABASE_URL']
run.py
#!/usr/bin/env python
from app import manager
manager.run()
Procfile last but not least:
web: gunicorn app:app
You have a typo when you choose the database url:
if os.environ.get('DATABSE_URL') is None:
instead of
if os.environ.get('DATABASE_URL') is None:
