Hey Angelo! I believe the mandrill-rails gem only supports Mandrill's inbound email webhooks.

The primary goal of Mandrill::Rails is to make supporting Mandrill web hooks as easy and Rails-native as possible.

The mandrill-api gem should be for accessing their REST API which you can find here: https://mandrillapp.com/api...

Definitely an episode on strong_params in the works. This is a great one to go in depth on.

Already on it! :)

Make sure you open up the file using sudo before. So either "sudo vim /etc/nginx/nginx.conf" or "sudo nano /etc/nginx/nginx.conf"

Glad you got it! :)

I think this comes from your Capfile not being configured appropriately. Double check that step and make sure you've got all the correct require statements.

Did you install Vagrant from the rubygem before? I linked to the installer and make sure you remove the Vagrant gem.

Glad you found it!

You can check the nginx log then for errors and you should find something there. Could be syntax errors for example.

Looks like you're trying to install with an RVM version of Ruby. https://github.com/Homebrew...

Your deploy was successful. The failures are supposed to happen.

Make sure you point nginx to /home/deploy/sample_app/current/ and restart it.

The Ruby openssl extension was not compiled. Missing the OpenSSL lib?

Did you install the OpenSSL lib with apt-get?

It's inside your rails app; a file in the config directory.

If you used rbenv, make sure you run rbenv rehash after installing the Rails gem. That makes the gem's executables available to use. It currently isn't available, so Ubuntu is suggesting a different installation method.

Yep! For error logs, check out this file for your production logs: /home/deploy/MYAPP/current/log/production.log

Well, it's saying that you should update your config/secrets.yml to include a section for production. You can either set it up in the file and commit it, or you can remove it from git and set it up to link the file on deploy just like your database.yml

Try

passenger_ruby /usr/local/rvm/wrappers/ruby-2.1.2/ruby

but replace that version of Ruby with the one you installed in case it is different.

Dang! :\ To be fair, Heroku's simplicity is pretty darn impressive and I don't blame you.

If you ever do need to get your site running on a VPS, shoot me an email and we can do a short one-on-one gig and I can probably get you squared away.

I guess, just double check that you've got it in the right format then. Can't think of anything else that would be wrong. You're pretty close now!

Thanks for sharing Maxime! I've also written a post on this about without having to setup a new controller. https://gorails.com/blog/ra...
