How to Migrate from Heroku to Hatchbox.io Discussion

Thanks, Chris!

I'd love to see more of these. I'm using Hatch and loving it, I just don't think I'm using it to it's full potential.

I think a series of setting up and configuring different features would be cool!

Nice! Really useful. Was using the same db from heroku and hitting the row limits .. So migrating the db solves this. 

Would love to see more of these - Best practices for background jobs, elastic search implementations etc. Thank you!!

Cool. Out of curiosity, when creating servers and apps, are the passwords stored in clear in the database?

They're all encrypted. Not sure why you would store anything in plaintext like that.

Right, it wouldn't make sense :)  I was wondering mainly about automated deployments - i.e. how does the app know which passwords to use when doing things on servers if passwords are encrypted. But I was now reading about attr_encrypted and similar, would that be a good enough approach to encrypt sensitive information? Thanks!

Great tutorial, but I am missing something... What is the benefit of using Hatchbox over Heroku?

Chris, I can see that you mention Passenger + NGINX, any chace to use PUMA instead?

I always get the error pg_restore: error: could not execute query: ERROR: cannot drop schema public because other objects depend on it. It happens even if I clear all data from my hatchbox DB (using db:schema:load). This "public" schema is nothing I set up, but it seems to be a default thing from PG in the "postgres" and "template1" databases (both were automatically created). How do I get around this error?

Hier is the full dump btw. It contains a bunch of errors, even though I completely dropped and re-created the empty DB.

Ha, never mind. I had an older version of the schema on heroku, which made it incompatible with the schema on hatchbox.

I had to first deploy the latest version (including the latest migrations) to heroku before capturing the DB backup. After that I had no problems importing the data into hatchbox.
