Has anyone successfully deployed on heroku from a windows platform?

I've been reading all kinds of tutorials on how to deploy rails apps on heroku from windows.

I've tried installing git, heroku gem, generating ssh keys and setting paths and everything...

I get either public key error (开发者_StackOverflow中文版without putty) or fatal no auth found (with putty)...

After some setup problems -- indeed related to SSH keys -- I've successfully developed Rails/Sinatra applications on Windows and deployed those to Heroku. It works fine.

Generating the keys was a challenge -- I didn't keep notes, but I think I generated the keys with the Git GUI in which you can create a OpenSSH key. That key file is stored in ~/.ssh (so within C:\Documents and Settings\<account>\.ssh) as id_rsa with an accompanying id_rsa.pub. Since I wanted a seperate key for use in Heroku, I've renamed both files of the key pair to id_heroku / id_heroku.pub.

Finally, in the same folder, I've created a file config. That file contains

Host heroku.com
Hostname heroku.com
Port 22
IdentitiesOnly yes
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_heroku
TCPKeepAlive yes
User user@example.com

Alternately, you may utilize puTTYgen.exe , and paste the OpenSSH public key into a mykey.pub file, and uploading that with heroku keys:add c:\mykey.pub
