Attempting to deploy my Django web application to Heroku. This is the first time I have ever deployed the app on Heroku however the app works as expected when running at localhost:8000.

I have followed the documentation and can confirm the presense of 'Procfile' in the root directory of the app.

The contents of Procfile are as follows:

web: gunicorn my_app.wsgi

This is consistent with the name of the app as referened everywhere in the project directory/folders. The 'requirements.txt' file is also present, with the necessary dependencies stated within it.

When I deploy the app I get a success message as illustrated below.

Yet, when I navigate in the browser to the url I see this...

If I then consult the logs using the commmand heroku logs --tail --app myapp I see the following

at=error code=H14 desc="No web processes running" method=GET path="/" host=myapp.herokuapp.com request_id=[REDACTED] fwd="51.9.111.101" dyno= connect= service= status=503 bytes= protocol=https
2022-03-19T19:07:35.123190 00:00 heroku[router]: at=error code=H14 desc="No web processes running" method=GET path="/favicon.ico" host=myapp.herokuapp.com request_id=[REDACTED] fwd="51.9.111.101" dyno= connect= service= status=503 bytes= protocol=https

Further investigaton leads me to believe that that there are currently no dynos assigned to the app, so I then attempt to spin up some resources using the following command heroku ps:scale web=1, yet this gives me a console error of Scaling dynos... ! ▸ Couldn't find that process type (web).

At a loss as to what I can do to resolve the issue so any help would be greatly appreciated.

SOLVED!

Had moved Procfile to root but had not pushed this change to Git repo and so Heroku could not establish the presence of the file, hence error.
