Deploying Google app engine with python failed

Question

I try to deploy some files on google CDN (appspot) with Google App Engine release 1.19.7 and Python 2.7.9. I'm sure that's it's not a big problem but I'm not a specialist. I've created the application in 'Google developers' The content of the file app.yaml is :

application: o-naturel  version: 1 runtime: python27 api_version: 1 threadsafe: true

# Expiration des fichiers : 30 jours default_expiration: "30d"

handlers:
- url: /styles   static_dir: styles

- url: /images   static_dir: images

- url: /files   static_dir: files

#- url: /.*
#  static_files: index.html
#  upload: index.html

Find below the errors during the deployment. Hope I will get an answer because I can not follow the development of my web site. Many thanks in advance !!!!

You can close this window now.

Answer 1

There seems to be a bug in the SDK. See Deep's link above. for me simplest solution was to add: --skip_sdk_update_check=yes to the additional options. Later I will check for and download a newer version manually, and then remove the option again.

Answer 2

If you use Python 2.7.9, you should install Python 2.7.8. When I ran GAE/P in Python 2.7.9, this error occured just like you. However, it worked correctly, when I ran GAE/P in Python 2.7.8. Probably, the difference is between Python 2.7.9 released 2014-12-10 and GAE/P released 2014-12-8 now.

Please try Python 2.7.8.

Answer 3

This is fixed for me by upgrading Google App Engine SDK to 1.9.18 (in GoogleAppEngineLauncher UI use Help > Check for updates). I'm running Python 2.7.9.

Answer 4

If you want to continue using Python 2.7.9, the solution as shown in: https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=11536 worked for me.

Had to change three lines of code and it started working.
