Rails 4 app ActiveRecord::MigrationProxy Devise 3 migration error

Question

I am deploying my rails 4 app on vps with ssh and when I run

bundle exec rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production

this is what I get:

[root@georgigeorgiev public_html]# bundle exec rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production

also my devise migration file:

class DeviseCreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
   t.has_attached_file :avatar  
def change
    create_table(:users) do |t|
      ## Database authenticatable
      t.string :email,              :null => false, :default => ""
      t.string :encrypted_password, :null => false, :default => ""

      t.string   :reset_password_token
      t.datetime :reset_password_sent_at

      ## Rememberable
      t.datetime :remember_created_at

      ## Trackable
      t.integer  :sign_in_count, :default => 0

      t.timestamps
    end

    add_index :users, :email,                :unique => true

Remove

t.has_attached_file :avatar

from the migration.

If you are using Paperclip for image upload(for field avatar) then add the following line in the migration:

class DeviseCreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def change
    create_table(:users) do |t|
      ...
      t.attachment :avatar
      ...
    end
    ...
  end
end

After this perform bundle exec rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
