I deleted the production.sqlite3 file in the /var/ directory, deleted the dokku container and began again. I updated my .gitignore to ignore the db files and pushed to dokku.

Running $ dokku run commit-redux rake db:migrate worked like a charm this time around.

Just gotta update the domain again and run the LetsEncrypt script.

$ dokku domains:set commit-redux commit-redux.enocc.com

$ dokku letsencrypt:enable commit-redux

And it’s live!! 🥳
