I have a lot of single dyno free apps on heroku, and they are all reachable except for 2.
http://simple-captcha-demo.heroku.com/ is a live demo of the different captcha tools available in Rails. 1. The app is running, (not getting the generic heroku 'Application Error') page, but is failing on db access 2. tailing the logs shows the error is 'PGError: FATAL: sorry, too many clients already' 3. I can get into heroku console, but if I try to access the db I also get 'PGError: FATAL: sorry, too many clients already' I have another app that is a beta site for a client (so its pretty important that it functions) 1. I get generic 'Application Error' when hitting home page 2. heroku logs --tail shows 'heroku[router]: Error H10 (App crashed) -> GET <my_website.com>/ dyno=none queue=0 wait=0ms service=0ms bytes=0 3. attempting to increase the number of dynos did not help 4. I can't get in to the console, I get the error Your application is too busy to open a console session. Console sessions require an open dyno to use for execution. I'm not freaking out about this, and I haven't opened a ticket. I'm not paying for this dyno yet, so I don't expect too much, and I realize the Heroku team has been working like crazy to resolve this. (last year at RailsConf they had a big outage, and had to explain it there at the conference, and I bet its going to be a big topic this year as well. Hopefully they'll be in a good position to give some pointers on how we could architect our apps to be ready for this) I just wanted to report that almost all of my free dynos are working, which is great, and I'm sure these last 2 will come back soon. As a side note, I learned that you can configure new relic to ping your app at a specified interval, and notify you if the app is not up. Thanks New Relic!
