In your config/secrets.yml file remove everything add this:

development:
  secret_key_base: bcbfd4e5010b035e62898f964188362877783b43f94bf883cf4b1d82d9224349789fb9dd0c2f33a200acfa266024a285e324caa3b20d0a9a352014156e47ec5c

test:
  secret_key_base: af068d8662bf954a2afeb27c64bbcdeb56b730029272bd3daff7e00c3c076999b3d2297747a3cef0550d3efd5cf8072e0477b8a62f096c94ab124f0d99320d20

# Do not keep production secrets in the repository,
# instead read values from the environment.
production:
  secret_key_base: <%= ENV["SECRET_KEY_BASE"] %>

Your error refers that in your secrets.yml file secret_key_base and secret_token is missing.

FYI: You can change the secret_key_base as you like. If you don't have this file then create one. For different environment the secret_key_base will be different. You should add the environment there also. Here, I give key base for development/production/test environment
