Migrating db in Heroku RoR error

Question

Hello and thank you in advance for your time racing this,

I am new to RoR and i´m following RUBY ON RAILS TUTORIAL by Michael Hartl, I got really stuck with this error when im trying to migrate the db in heroku (i know that what syntax error means (END) but i still can't solve it)

heroku run rake db:migrate

Running `rake db:migrate` attached to terminal... up, run.4787
Migrating to CreateUsers (20141001220747)
rake aborted!

(See full trace by running task with --trace)

i have done my research and figured out that the problem is with an extra or missing END, but i have tried adding and deleting ends... with no luck. The weird thing is that the error is exactly the same even if I add or delete ENDS. Here is the file for the migration

class CreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def change
    create_table :users do |t|
      t.string :name
      t.string :email
      t.timestamps
    end
  end
end

Thanks a lot and hope you can help. Happy coding

Found the problem. The issue was that i was doing the changes locally and was missing to commit the changes, push them to git and then pull them in the heroku instance.

Once I did it I could run the db migration with no issues.

BTW the code I posted on top was the correct one but the first time i pushed it, it had a syntax error defining the class.
