heroku uninitialized constant user

I have a rails application using devise for authentication. It works when deployed locally but when push to Heroku I get this error

2014-07-03T14:20:17.235816+00:00 app[web.1]: /app/app/controllers/users_controller.rb:1:in `<top (required)>': uninitialized constant Users (NameError)

Here is the file it is referring to 

class Users::SessionsController < Devise::SessionsController
    before_create :create_associated_records

    ROLES = [ROLE_STUDENT = 'student', ROLE_GRADUATE = 'graduate', 
         ROLE_INSTITUTIONAL_ADMIN = 'role_recruiter', ROLE_ADMIN = 'admin']

    def create
        @user = User.create(user_params)
    end

    private

    def user_params
        params.require(:user).permit(:avatar)
    end

end

Thank you.

I believe you should either move 

/app/app/controllers/users_controller.rb

to

/app/app/controllers/users/users_controller.rb

or change 

class Users::SessionsController < Devise::SessionsController

to 

class SessionsController < Devise::SessionsController

This is due to the ::, which denotes a location. Users::SessionsController would be looking for ./Users/SessionController, which is a relative path to the current tree level (controllers).
