Taps allow you to migrate your data between different databases, unfortunately it have a well know bug using pull with recent version of rack. That's a simple workaround:

1. Make a new dir and a new Gemfile inside

   $ mkdir taps && cd taps && nano Gemfile

2. Paste this content:

   source 'https://rubygems.org'
   
   gem 'rack','1.0.1'
   gem 'taps'
   gem 'sqlite3'
   gem 'pg'
   gem 'mysql2'

3. Save, close and run bundle

   $ bundle

4. Run taps server:

   $ bundle exec taps server postgres://user:pass@host:port/origin_db_name?encoding=UTF8 db db

5. Migrate!

   $ taps pull mysql://user:pass@host:port/destination_db_name?encoding=UTF8 http://db:db@localhost:5000
