Error running gcloud preview app setup-managed-vms

Question

gcloud preview app setup-managed-vms throws this error as of the April 16th, 2015 release:

ERROR: (gcloud.preview.app) Invalid choice: 'setup-managed-vms'.

Answer 1

This command has been removed because the base runtime images are now available publicly on the Google Container Registry.

They're available under: gcr.io/google_appengine/python-compat gcr.io/google_appengine/java-compat gcr.io/google_appengine/go-compat

These can be pulled with a standard "docker pull "

If you replace the google/appengine-* with these image names in the FROM line of your Dockerfile, docker will automatically pull these during builds and deploys.
