heroku postgres copy - "! App not found"

Question

Trying to copy a production db with:

heroku db:pull postgres://postgres:@localhost/prod_20120717 \
--app my_app --confirm my_app

but I get:

$ heroku db:pull postgres://postgres:@localhost/prod_20120717 --app my_app \
--confirm my_app
Loaded Taps v0.3.24
Warning: Data in the database 'postgres://postgres:@localhost/prod_20120717' \
will be overwritten and will not be recoverable.
 !    App not found.

Just a stupid question : Is your application exist? – Dougui Jul 17 '12 at 14:58 — Dougui, Jul 17 '12 at 14:58
yes and other developers work with it. – Michael Durrant Jul 17 '12 at 15:22 — Michael Durrant, Jul 17 '12 at 15:22
However `heroku apps` returns 'You have no apps' – Michael Durrant Jul 17 '12 at 15:34 — Michael Durrant, Jul 17 '12 at 15:34

heroku is probably misconfigured. Try to do this heroku login and redo your login.

In addition, please use pgbackups, not pg:pull. https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/pgbackups
