Heroku deployment crashing

[strikerthedj]

Tried to deploy crewlink following the heroku button on this github and it causes the app to crash. Tried doing so in a fresh account as well with the same error.

Here is the error code I get. Application error An error occurred in the application and your page could not be served. If you are the application owner, check your logs for details. You can do this from the Heroku CLI with the command

Any thoughts on how to fix?

@bthulse This is fixed with pull request #119.

I have forked it over to here for easy deployment. Just hit deploy to Heroku.

Found a workaround. If this variable can't be set automatically, the setup instructions should get updated with the following steps:

1. Deploy app normally
2. Go to your deployed app through the Heroku Dashboard and click on "Settings"
3. Look for the "Config Vars" section and click on the "Reveal Config Vars" button
4. In the Key field enter ADDRESS
5. In the Value field add the url heroku assigned your app. You can find it in the Domains section of the Settings page, so just scroll down a bit.
6. Click the Add Button. The app should restart on its own.

@bthulse - that workaround is the only way to do it right now (other than using a fork, such as the one from #119).

119 should add automatic detection - mostly. It'll work for Heroku, but on some systems it'll end up showing the wrong address (if it's behind certain proxies).

118 will update the README with the workaround instructions, like you described.

At this point to do either we're waiting on one of the repo collaborators.

In settings you need to create a Config Vars -KEY= ADDRESS -VALUE= https://yourappsaddress.herokuapp.com/

Hello folks, I just rebased #119 so it'll work with the new client versions. You'll need to redeploy your server if it's based off my fork (here).
