When testing my very first training website project in Google Mobile-Friendly Test I get a strange statement claiming that the requested URL is marked as not allowed. (I am not quoting it as it is not in the English language.)
It is strange as there is no robots.txt file in my project.
I'll be grateful for any help.

I've been following this tutorial: https://cloud.google.com/solutions/mobile/mobile-firebase-app-engine-flexible
I reached the step titled "Deploying the service to the App Engine flexible environment", and initially could not get it to deploy due to dm:true being deprecated. Changing <dm>true</dm> to <env>flex</env> in "appengine-web.xml" fixed this, and it now appears in the App Engine console as "serving". However, when I go to access the printLogs URL as instructed in the tutorial (or any URL connected to the project for that matter) I run into a 404 error. I am deploying from Windows 10 through the command prompt, and have installed everything instructed by the tutorial. I cannot figure out what is causing the 404 despite being told that it is running correctly.
You can go to the version in cloud platform and check the logs - it might tell you something.
However, I can tell you from experience that a lot of those projects are out of date and you can get all sorts of errors without changing a single line of code and following the instructions exactly. I've some of them say that they deploy, only to have errors just like the one you are describing.
It is very likely that you are NOT doing something wrong - check out some of the other projects and look specifically at pom.xml (or build.gradle) and app.yaml. See which versions of libraries they are including, and look for any differences. Try deploying a very limited project, and then build upwards and see what is breaking the code.
I am facing an issue that Google Bot is reporting some unknown URLs (as highlighted in the screenshot) from one type of page. After checking the source code, JS and CSS files I have not come across any such URLs. Because of them the 404 count reported by Google Search Console is continuously increasing.
Can anyone please, guide me in finding the root cause as to why crawler is reporting such URLs or how to avoid them.
Most of the cases, these URLs are coming from outside backlinks to your website, check your backlinks from "Links to my site"
Or maybe your domain was on another website and your bought it.
Also check if you have spammy comments on your website.
my question is very simple. I created a new project in Google following these instructions: https://developers.google.com/bid-manager/guides/getting-started
The issue is that on the console of this project, under Compute section, I don't have the AppEngine section (I have only Compute Engine). Here's a screenshot:

I can't find a way to create one...is there any way and why it's missing?
I have been successfully using Netbeans to develop and deploy an app to the Google App Engine for ages through various application versions. That is all working normally and fine.
However (the problem), through the same account I created a new application (at the Google end) and at the application end the correct application id is in appengine-web.xml with a version of 1. All runs locally perfectly. But as soo as I deploy to GAE it fails:
com.google.appengine.tools.admin.HttpIoException: Error posting to URL:
404 Not Found
This application does not exist
Unable to update app: Error posting to URL: https://appengine.google.com/api/appversion/create?app_id=
404 Not Found
This application does not exist (app_id=u
Why??????
I have spent hours looking through the web for a solution. Lots of people have a similar problem but what is the solution? How can one app upload fine and the second fails?
PLEASE can someone give me some suggestions on how to fix the problem and successfully deploy?
I use Netbeans and have tried 6.9, 7.1, and 7.2 (I even tried installing Eclipse to solve the problem but it was horrendous to get going so I'm back to Netbeans). JDK 1.6.
Help!
Of course it works this way. After finally seeking help (from you chaps), within minutes I solve the problem (blind luck).
In case it helps anyone else, the basic issue was Google's account authentication model...
I needed to generate an application-specific password in Google Accounts (https://accounts.google.com/IssuedAuthSubTokens#accesscodes - that is, the Authorized Access to your Google Account area) to be used with the new application.
Then I needed to clear the existing email/password in Netbeans. This is a bit messy as I did that by deleting the 'deployment.properties' file you eventually find in C:\Users\User.netbeans\7.1\config\Preferences\org\netbeans\modules\j2ee\appengine.
You'll note I went back to Netbeans 7.1 because Netbeans 7.2 seems to store it in a different place which I couldn't find.
Back to Netbeans and hit the 'Deploy to Google App Engine' menu choice. It starts then asks for authentication. I used my normal (account) emailid and then the NEW application specific password. Miracle of miracles, it worked and the app fired up live.
I went and got a coffee
Perhaps Google could provide a slightly more meaningful error code than 404 Not Found???
Hopefully that helps anyone else with a similar problem.
Today, I had kind of the same problem. After some trial and error I found the solution.
Basically, starting from Netbeans 7.2. up, username and password are stored in something called "keyring".
In Windows 8 I found it under my current users directory: AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\7.3.1\config\Preferences\org\netbeans\modules\keyring.
I had to delete the GAE password information from the configuration file there. Then I cleared some registry keys (that might not be mandatory) and restarted Netbeans IDE. Then got prompted for new credentials.

I am really really new to java and google app engine also. I read google's tutorial and did sample guestbook application of google. It seems to work correctly. And i did deploy it as well. However, I have problem to reach my http://example.appspot.com/ My application id is example. And i made changes in my xml files. But still it keeps saying '404 Error Not Found' I dont think i did anything wrong though. In logs it says No handlers matched this URL. Could you help me with this?
Thank you.
You have to create a project on appspot.com first. Example.appspot.com is not your project and it's just a demo URL provided by google. I doubt you can deploy your guestbook using "example" as the app-id.
