'foreman start' Command Not Found Error
I have recently started a project called PRETEENIFY in which a user may translate proper English sentences into text only a preteen could love. My environment consists of Heroku deployment, Bottle framework, and a database. I am still programming pretty much everything on Windows which has lead to interesting results. After deploying the site, I wanted to add different functionality, but didn't want to push new code that killed the current version. So I finally decided to check out foreman which comes as a part of the Heroku toolbelt for command line. I typed in 'foreman start' and got the dreaded command not found error. Not knowing what the cause could be, I turned to the internet for guidance. Many have had this same issue, yet the root to the error was quite different for most. Turns out that the Git Bash prompt I was using has an older version of Bash than foreman is designed to be used with. The fix was simply to open a Windows CMD prompt and enter 'foreman start'. And that was that!
