I'm not sure about the different app roots. But the other approach definitely works. My (working) example: $ cat config.ru $LOAD_PATH.unshift File.dirname(__FILE__) if ENV['APP_NAME'] == 'web' require 'web' run Foo::Web else require 'api' run Foo::API end $ cat Procfile web: bundle exec rackup -p $PORT worker: bundle exec rake queue:work VERBOSE=1 QUEUE=* -- Jason Dixon DixonGroup Consulting http://www.dixongroup.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Heroku" group.
