@Heroku: How about some help here?
@Heroku, This may not be intended as an official support channel, but how about assigning someone to hang out here and answer questions? Many questions here go unanswered, and that isn't only recently. Even if the answer is just to read the documentation, or contact Support directly, or Sorry, can't help with that one, it's better than nothing. It looks bad. Don't you guys have a bunch of money now? ;) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Heroku group. To post to this group, send email to heroku@googlegroups.com.

Re: @Heroku: How about some help here?
There are some heroku staffers who dip in and out every now and then answering stuff when necessary but the bulk of questions get answered. I dare say a lot of stuff on here ends up in the Heroku support system, or elsewhere such as StackOverflow.

Re: @Heroku: How about some help here?
But where should Heroku draw the line - should they also hang out on Stackoverflow? Should they also hang out in IRC 24/7? There's only so much resource, and that's focused on the direct customer support channel as far as I can see. I have seen many responses from Heroku in the past.

I can't imagine there's a no response policy to get people to move questions into the support system, but if there were, it's a bad tactic.

Re: @Heroku: How about some help here?
No, but they should hang out on their own mailing list! I haven't gone back far enough to know for sure, but it does seem that most questions go unanswered. For a company of their size and importance, the lack of responses here over a period of years is _very_ noticeable, especially when compared with other commercial entities (remember, this isn't an open source shop or technology--the business world has different standards).

Re: mysql on heroku -- success stories
Hi Jason, Absolutely - if you're looking for how to use the ClearDB URLs that you receive from within Heroku, Adam Wiggins has posted a copy of Wordpress that does it on github - here's the actual file he changed, between lines 17-22: https://github.com/adamwiggins/wordpress-cleardb/blob/master/wp-config.php Hope that helps!

Re: Slug size of Scala apps
That definitely seems larger than it should be. You can bash into a dyno to see what is in there: heroku run bash If that doesn't get you anywhere you should submit a support ticket. BTW: Today .slugignore applies pre-compile. So in this case it's probably not going to help you reduce slug size. -James On 12/17/2011 09:27 AM, stephanos wrote: I recently deployed my first Scala app (sbt) on Heroku and I was surprised when I saw the slug size: ~70 MB. The odd thing is that when I run the stage command locally the size is only about ~40MB. I already tried tweaking my .slugignore https://gist.github.com/1490644 - without any real success...

Re: SSH tunnels in Heroku?
The Heroku dynos have ssh on them so this might be possible. You could put a bash script in your repo that would setup the ssh tunnel and then start the web process. Then just point your Procfile to that bash script. BTW: git push to Heroku uses ssh. Hope that helps. -James On 12/16/2011 11:06 AM, lazyant wrote: Hello, I'm evaluating Heroku and I can't find an answer of weather I can create an SSH tunnel in an Heroku instance. The problem I'm trying to solve is to communicate with an external database server (mysql, mongodb, whatever) or another service securely since database connection is in cleartext. I'm aware Heroku offers its own database services (not for mongo) or I can set up EC2 instances with the dbs and that's safer because data moves in the same data center in principle. Basically I'd need to run an ssh client (ssh -L) on Heroku to ssh out. I know I cannot ssh in but documentation is so sparse, I can't even find if git pushes over ssh or not. Or I'd be interested to know of another solution on how to connect securely (encrypted, not plain-text) to a database in an external, non- AWS server.

Re: service time way out of the norm of 50-200MS
It all depends on your app. Heroku processes one request at a time, so if on your laptop whatever server you are using processes multiple requests at a time (which it sounds like it does), it will perform differently. From the sounds of it, you need to change how requests get sent to your app. Instead of 1 request per thing, send 1 request will the information for all the things. - Daniel -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Heroku group.

Re: JRuby and Sinatra
Sounds like a bundler (or other gem) problem. I hosted a jruby app on my own not too long ago, and I fought a bit with trinidad and gems and where does it think things are. If you are using bundler, you might want to include it in there: `bundle exec ...` - Daniel -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Heroku group.

Re: Connecting to Legacy MySQL - but need static IP
I'm afraid Heroku relocates processes regularly throughout its cloud in order to maintain a reliable service. That means there isn't really a good off-the-shelf solution for this. You could consider building something like a port knocking system where each dyno could request access to the database automatically, but frankly, that's probably more trouble than it's worth. You could also try opening up the entire Amazon AWS IP range, but that's a pretty wide hole and there is definitely no guarantee it won't change in the future. Can't really think of any other alternatives, other than moving the database. -p On Thu, Dec 15, 2011 at 3:32 AM, Andrew Chalkley and...@chalkley.org wrote: I have a client who need to connect to a legacy DB. But their firewall needs an ip/range to allow access to their DB. Has anyone using Heroku had the same issue? How did you get around it? Tunnelling the connection or using a proxy service?
