Rails: An unhandled lowlevel error occurred. The application logs may have details
12,712
Solution 1
In your secrets.yml
, your environment variable key needs to be capitalized. Calling ENV['secret_key_base']
is returning nil
.
Modify your secrets.yml
like below:
production:
secret_key_base: <%= ENV["SECRET_KEY_BASE"] %>
Solution 2
You have to produce the 'secret_key_base' first.
bundle exec rake secret
The code above will produce the necessary key. Copy it and replace <%= ENV["SECRET_KEY_BASE"] %> with it.

I made this on my server:
deploy@ubuntu-512mb-ams2-01:~/applications/spa_backend/current$ bundle exec rake secret 4b921910** deploy@ubuntu-512mb-ams2-01:~/applications/spa_backend/current$ export SECRET_KEY_BASE=4b921910** deploy@ubuntu-512mb-ams2-01:~/applications/spa_backend/current$ irb irb(main):001:0> ENV["SECRET_KEY_BASE"] => "4b921910**"
And when I try open link with my app, I see this:
An unhandled lowlevel error occurred. The application logs may have details.
puma_error.log:
#<RuntimeError: Missing `secret_key_base` for 'production' environment, set this value in `config/secrets.yml`> /home/deploy/applications/spa_backend/shared/bundle/ruby/2.3.0/gems/railties-5.0.0.1/lib/rails/application.rb:513:in `validate_secret_key_config!' /home/deploy/applications/spa_backend/shared/bundle/ruby/2.3.0/gems/railties-5.0.0.1/lib/rails/application.rb:246:in `env_config'
secrets.yml:
production: secret_key_base: <%= ENV["SECRET_KEY_BASE"] %>
UPD. I changed
<%= ENV["secret_key_base"] %>
-><%= ENV["SECRET_KEY_BASE"] %>
but it didn't help
