Good day! Could You help me with issue after installing RoR image with postgresql - generate model and after it make migration: rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production. Get a mistake - “PG:ConnectionBad: fe_sendauth: no password supplied”. What can I do? (export APP_DATABASE_PASSWORD=**** helps only if there is no restart).

Hello,
I was having the same error, and for me the environment variables wan’t set. It was just a matter of executing “. /etc/default/unicorn” as seem here to properly setup the variables.
After that all started working again.
