ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid (SQLite3::ReadOnlyException: when using postgres - ruby-on-rails

Question

I am trying to deploy my first rails application on digital ocean in Ubuntu, I am unsure if I am doing this right. I initially had my production database in postgres and test and production in sqllite. In frustration, I changed all my databases to postgres my changing the database.yml. I am unsure if I did that correctly But I had this error: ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid (SQLite3::ReadOnlyException: . When I was in sqllite. I was not sure if I had to tell the server to switch to production mode or if it was configured to use sqllite.
What I want to do is use postgres instead of sqllite. I am using nginx and Unicorn. MY database is blank so I dont need to transfer anything. I have made the postgres database within postgres, I just need to point my app to that database. (I am unaware if I need to do something else
I have used this database.yml
development:
adapter: postgresql
encoding: unicode
host: localhost
database: blog_development
pool: 5
username: bob
password: password
test:
adapter: postgresql
encoding: unicode
database: blog_test
host: localhost
pool: 5
username: bob
password: password
production:
adapter: postgresql
encoding: unicode
host: localhost
database: blog_production
pool: 5
username: bob
password: password

Run rake db:drop db:create db:drop to drop your old database(s) and recreate the new ones in Postgres.
