Heroku does not play nicely with the IMGKit gem, and in order to make the screenshots work you need to download a compiled version of IMGKit.

https://wkhtmltopdf.googlecode.com/files/wkhtmltoimage-0.10.0_rc2-static-amd64.tar.bz2

You unzipped it and put it in the ‘bin’ directory of the application. Then make a configure file for IMGKit so that this would actually take effect.

IMGKit.configure do |config|
  config.wkhtmltoimage = Rails.root.join('bin', 'wkhtmltoimage-amd64').to_s if ENV['RACK_ENV'] == 'production'
end
