Issues deploying to heroku after database migrations

I have an application that runs locally but does not run after deploying to heroku. On Heroku, the application defaults to the "Welcome Aboard" page. That file was removed locally.

I've been trying to resolve this issue for hours, and tried the suggestions made in other Stackoverflow answers, the most common of which is:

heroku run rake db:migrate
heroku restart

to no avail.

The issue seems to be related to the database migrations that I performed earlier. The logs show:

I have three migration files that look like this:

20130209192118_create_corporations.rb

class CreateCorporations < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def change
    create_table :corporations do |t|
      t.string :name
      t.string :shares
      t.string :par_value
      t.string :incorporation_date
      t.timestamps
    end
  end
end

20130209231940_add_filing_date_to_corporations.rb

class AddFilingDateToCorporations < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def change
    add_column :corporations, :filing_date, :date
  end
end

20130209232108_remove_incorporation_date_from_corporations

class RemoveIncorporationDateFromCorporations < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def up
    remove_column :corporations, :incorporation_date
  end

  def down
    add_column :corporations, :incorporation_date, :string
  end
end

Really appreciate any thoughts...

In your last migration you remove incorporation_date column from your table, but in your corporations/_form.html.erb you're calling f.label :incorporation_date. It's strange that it works locally; may be you didn't run latest migrations or edited table manually.
