Rails - Jan 2014 - RubyZip zip file creation works on localhost but not heroku

I have rubyzip 0.9.9 and am creating a zip file like so:

Zip::ZipFile.open(zip_path, Zip::ZipFile::CREATE) do |zipfile|
    #code goes here
end

When I give it a zip path like this:  zip_path = File.join(Rails.root, 
"/tmp/zips/#{zip.id}.zip")  , it works fine locally, but not on
heroku.  On
heroku I get an error like: failed with Errno::ENOENT: No such file or 
directory - /tmp/zips/31.zip20140115-1059-1j1bx6

I looks like it's appending a timestamp onto the filepath for some reason. 
  I switched to using zip_path = 
File.expand_path('/tmp/zips/#{zip.id}.zip"), and I get that same
"No such
file or directory" error on localhost also.


What's going on here?  Something with the RubyZip gem?
