node.js app on the heroku platform

Question

I created a simple Node.js app following the tutorial offered by Heroku. When I try to run the command heroku ps:scale worker=1 from within the application folder I get the following error message:

Scaling worker dynos... failed
 !    Resource not found

Any ideas what the problem may be? I checked my app's dashboard on Heroku and the commit is there and also a Dyno is allocated. The Procfile is identical to the one in the tutorial.

Are you sure you have a worker process defined in your procfile? The node tutorial doesn't have you add one I don't think. Try heroku ps:scale web=1 instead.

Yeah, you are right. I don't know how I did not see that. Guess I'm too tired and I should take a break. Thanks a lot!
