This is what gets output in my application logs that the error code tells me to check. My research online and here on stack overflow has shown that this error seems to appear for a large variety of use cases, and Im not sure why its appearing now? My application runs fine locally. In fact it used to run on heroku, except when I just made new changes and tried to push them to heroku this happens when I try and start the app.

Edit: here is whats in my app.js currently: 

var bodyParser = require('body-parser');

var methodOverride = require('method-override');

var cookieParser = require('cookie-parser');
app.use(bodyParser());
app.use(methodOverride());
app.use(cookieParser());

npm is telling you what's wrong:

2014-08-18T15:48:38.818790+00:00 app[web.1]: Error: Most middleware (like json) is no longer bundled with Express and must be installed separately. Please see https://github.com/senchalabs/connect#middleware.

If you're using express 4.x.x, you must require the middleware separately.

For example, if you are using express.bodyParser(), you will need to replace it by performing the following steps:

  1. Run npm install body-parser --save
  2. Add this require near the top of your page with your require statements: var bodyParser = require('body-parser');
  3. Find in your app:
    • app.use(express.bodyParser());
    • app.use(express.urlencoded());
    • app.use(express.json());
  4. Replace ALL with this ONE line: app.use(bodyParser());

You must then complete these steps for all the other middleware your application uses and is listed on connect's migration guide.
