unable to parse Procfile

问题

I am trying to deploy an Heroku app.

I must be doing something wrong with the Procfile. When I run foreman check I get this error.

ERROR: no processes defined

I get pretty much the same thing when deploying on Heroku

-----> Building runtime environment
-----> Discovering process types

 !     Push failed: cannot parse Procfile.

The Procfile looks like this

web: node app.js

What did I miss?

update I re-did all from the start, It works properly now. I think I might have issue with Unix line ending

回答1:

Is your procfile in the root of your project? Is it spelled with a capital G? Does it have unix line endings?

回答2:

Just encounter "Push failed: cannot parse Procfile." on Windows. I can conclude that It IS "Windows-file format" problem, NOT the context of file itself.

make sure to create a clean file, maybe use Notepad++ or other advanced editor to check the file type.

回答3:

Open your current Procfile with notepad. Create a new Procfile.txt and paste the content of your original Procfile . Save your Procfile and replace it with your new Procfile

回答4:

save as a utf-8 character file, rather than what it is - a utf 16 character file. this is a confirmed fix.
