heroku push error: "Could not detect rake tasks"

I'm trying to deploy a basic app and it's not working. Using

git push heroku master

I got this error message:

bundle exec rake -P seems to be working fine.

There's nothing special in my Gemfile, I just added Bootstrap:

source 'https://rubygems.org'


# Bundle edge Rails instead: gem 'rails', github: 'rails/rails'
gem 'rails', '4.2.5.1'

# Use SCSS for stylesheets

end

  gem 'spring'
end
group :production do
  gem 'pg'
  gem 'rails_12factor'
end
ruby "2.2.3"

Well, I don't see why it's happening, since I have another project that is working normally. I checked everything and it still gives me that message.

Solution

Sometimes Heroku throws an issue on deployment about assets. You can precompile assets and push it to Heroku.

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake assets:precompile

Update:

In case of it doesn't work, make sure to add RAILS_SERVE_STATIC_FILES env. to yr server.

Make it enabled or true nor anything :)

Because in Rails <5.1 production.rb has

config.public_file_server.enabled = ENV['RAILS_SERVE_STATIC_FILES'].present?

Heroku: App -> Settings -> "Reveal Config Vars"
