(Rails 3.1, Heroku cedar, ruby 1.9.3, macosx, eclipse, git)
My application is deployed on heroku cedar, and the devise sign-in layer worked fine in the last version but the users-path now throws a missing template error. It works fine on my development machine.
The two big changes I made to the latest is - 1) generating the Users model/view/controller from Devise so I could customize. 2) Added a path prefix to the devise user paths (i.e. registration)
As a test on Heroku, change root_path to a different controller/index (i.e. messages_path), which allowed access to the application. Everything worked, except a click to the home link, which tries again to go to the users_path (same missing template error):
<%= link_to image_tag("homeIcon.png"), users_path, :method =>"GET", :id =>"menulink", :title => "Go Home." %>
I am desperate for any insight into this issue because I can't figure out what to do except not use Devise and Users this way on Heroku. Any and all ideas are greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Anne
(Note on research: Searched on the error message; similar issues, but nothing about failing to go to root_path of users#index, nothing related to Devise and Users customization causing error message; reviewed questions list proposed by stackoverflow engin)

Well, it's fixed, but in the weirdest way. Thanks to all the stackexchange posts that gave me the incremental insights, and to Raul who pushed the verification idea.
Here's the gist of it for anyone else stuck in cloud-hell.
1 - views/Users needed to be views/users. somehow my local environment create *U*sers. The entire /user location seemed to be pushed to heroku, but apparently not.
2 - (after Raul's question, and an hour trying to find the heroku directory structure) Made a simple typo change to /users/index.html, to see if there was an error when I tried to commit it. During the commit (eclipse git window), I noticed the filename in the project explorer flicking between 'Users/' and 'users, the entire time.
Once the git commit completed and I did yet another heroku push master, the problem was solved. I now land on /users/index.html
Thanks to everyone for the save, I love this site.
