I am developing an app engine project (golang) in Cloud9 IDE. For testing in desktop i would go to localhost:8080 in my desktop browser.
In Cloud9, I tried https://workspace-username.c9.io with $PORT set as 8080, but somehow its not working for appengine project. But it is working for normal go web project though.
How do i test app engine application in Cloud9 IDE? or
How do i open http://localhost:8080 in Cloud9 IDE?
Available ports on a hosted Cloud9 workspace
If you're developing a server application, please note that you need
to listen to 0.0.0.0 ($IP) and 8080 ($PORT). Listening to this port
will enable your app to be viewable at https://-.c9users.io
You can also bind to ports 8081, and 8082, which can be accessed by
https://-.c9users.io:8081 and https://-.c9users.io:8082 respectively.
Please note that 8080, 8081, and 8082 are the only available ports on
a hosted Cloud9 workspace.
How to connect to the process running on 'localhost' that is inside of cloud9 server
I see some users are looking for the answer for this, So here is how to do it.
instead of "goapp serve" use "goapp serve -host 0.0.0.0"
credits to Cloud9 support team.
For Google App Engine running Python, the command would be
dev_appserver.py app.yaml --host $IP --port $PORT --admin_host $IP --admin_port 8081
You can also specify the admin host/port. Since Cloud 9 allows access to 8081 and 8082, you can use either of those as your admin ports. For me, the admin console did not open with the Cloud9 preview, but did open in a new tab within my browser.
$IP and $PORT are both environment variables for Cloud 9, with the values of 0.0.0.0 and 8080 respectively.
Edit:
With the most recent gcloud update (March 2018), you don't have to change the IP or PORT, but you do need to figure out how to work around the host whitelisting issue.
My non-ideal workaround is to add a flag to not check for hosts --enable_host_checking=false.
dev_appserver.py app.yaml --enable_host_checking=false
There's an unanswered Cloud 9 post around this issue (link to c9 forum). My guess is that you can add $C9_HOSTNAME as the host, but that doesn't quite work for me.
Interactive Console
If you want to use the interactive console you need to assign the admin port and also use the `--enable_console' flag.
dev_appserver.py app.yaml --enable_host_checking=false --admin_port 8081 --enable_console=true

Hi have this lib which runs a Jerry server on port 8001. Hi can I deploy it on GCloud so that the traffic hits the 8001 port, not the 8080 port?
What do you mean exactly by Google Cloud Platform?
If you are using the AppEngine Launcher you can change the port by editing the ini file directly:
C:/Users/username/Google/google_appengine_projects.ini
I'm using Java but this isn't necessarily a Java question. Google's "java-compat" image is Debian (3.16.7-ckt20-1+deb8u3~bpo70+1 (2016-01-19)).
Here is my Dockerfile:
FROM gcr.io/google_appengine/java-compat
RUN apt-get -qqy update && apt-get qqy install curl xvfb x11vnc
RUN mkdir -p ~/.vnc
RUN x11vnc -storepasswd xxxxxxxx ~/.vnc/passwd
EXPOSE 5900
ADD . /app
And in the Admin Console I created a firewall rule to open up 5900. And lastly I am calling the vnc server itself in the "_ah/start" startup hook with this command:
x11vnc -forever -usepw -create
All seems to be setup correctly but I'm unable to connect with TightVNC. I use the public (ephemeral) IP address for the instance I find in the Admin Console followed by ::5900 (TightVNC requires two colons for some reason). I'm getting a message that the server refused the connection. And indeed when I try to telnet to port 5900 it's blocked.
Next I SSH into the container machine and when I test the port on the container with wget xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:5900 I get a connection. So it seems to me the container is not accepting connections on port 5900. Am I getting this right? Is it possible to open up ports and route my VNC client into the docker container? Any help appreciated.
Why I can't use Compute Engine. Just to preempt some comments about using google's Compute Engine environment instead of Managed VMs. I make heavy use of the Datastore and Task Queues in my code. I don't think those can run (or run natively/efficiently) on Compute Engine. But I may pose that as a separate question.
Update: Per Paul in the comments... having learned some of the docker terminology: Can I publish a port on the container in Google's environment?
Out of curiosity - why are you trying to VNC into your instances? If it's just for management purposes, you can SSH into Managed VM instances.
That having been said - you can use the network/forwarded_ports config to route traffic from the VM to the application container:
network:
forwarded_ports:
- 5900
instance_tag: vnc
Put that in your app.yaml, and re-deploy your app. You'll also need to open the port in your firewall (if you intend on accessing this from the public internet):
gcloud compute firewall-rules create default-allow-vnc \
--allow tcp:5900 \
--target-tags vnc \
--description "Allow vnc traffic on port 5900"
Hope this helps!
I'm now able to run a Dart app using
gcloud --verbosity debug preview app run app.yaml
and also to deploy and run on AppEngine
gcloud --verbosity debug preview app deploy app.yaml
but I haven't found a way to connect a debugger to the Dart app running on the development server.
I found http://dartbug.com/21067 but still couldn't find a way to make it work.
See also https://groups.google.com/a/dartlang.org/forum/#!topic/cloud/OK1nJtg7AjQ
Update 2015-02-27
The app can be run without Docker and then be debugged like any Dart command line application:
Source. https://groups.google.com/a/dartlang.org/d/msg/cloud/zrxgOHFz_lA/q5CdLLQPBAgJ
The API server is part of the App Engine SDK, and we are using it for
running tests in the appengine package. If you look at
https://github.com/dart-lang/appengine/blob/master/tool/run_tests.sh
you will see that it expects the environment variable
APPENGINE_API_SERVER.
The API server is in /platform/google_appengine/api_server.py
and takes a number of arguments. I just tested running it like this:
$ $CLOUD_SDK/platform/google_appengine/api_server.py \ -A
dev~test-application \ --api_port 4444 \ --high_replication \
--datastore_path /tmp/datastore
To run an app engine application outside the normal development server
requires that a number of environment variables are set. This worked
for my application:
$ GAE_LONG_APP_ID=test-application \ GAE_MODULE_NAME=default \
GAE_MODULE_VERSION=version \ GAE_PARTITION=dev \ API_PORT=4444 \
API_HOST=127.0.0.1 \ dart bin/server.dart
In the Dart Editor you cannot set environment variables for each
launch configuration, so they have to be set globally before starting
the Dart Editor. In WebStorm it is possible to have run configuration
specific environment variables.
This simple setup will of cause not support everything the normal
development server support. Some of the issues are:
Only one application at the time as it is always listening on port
8080 (can easily be made configurable) * The users API (mocking this
shouldn't be that difficult) * The modules API * No health-checks
(should not be a problem) * All HTTP headers are direct from the
client (no x-appengine- headers) * The admin web interface is not
available * Probably other stuff as well
This is all experimental, but it is one solution for a simpler
developer setup, which of cause does not match the deployment
environment as closely as the development server.
Running the API Server using Docker is also possible as the image
google/cloud-sdk with the Cloud SDK is on hub.docker.com.
Use the following Dockerfile
FROM google/cloud-sdk EXPOSE 4444 ENTRYPOINT
["/google-cloud-sdk/platform/google_appengine/api_server.py", \
"-A", "dev~test-application", \ "--api_port", "4444", \
"--high_replication", \ "--datastore_path", "/tmp/datastore"]
Build and run
$ docker build -t api_server . $ docker run -d -p 4444:4444 api_server
Change API_HOST above to 192.166.59.103 (of wherever your Docker
containers are) and run.

Debugging from DartEditors debugger started working with the bleeding Dart build 1.8.0.edge_042017.
I assume that the next dev build (probably 1.9.0-dev1.0) will include the related fixes as well?
Detailed steps how this works can be found here: https://groups.google.com/a/dartlang.org/d/msg/cloud/OK1nJtg7AjQ/u-GzUDI-0VIJ
Build a custom Docker image with the latest Dart dev build 1.8.0-dev.4.6.
The Dart team is actually preparing an easy way to do this yourself (see https://github.com/dart-lang/dart_docker)
Installe the latest bleeding_edge on the host system (using this script https://gist.github.com/zoechi/d240f56a32ed5649797f or manual download from http://gsdview.appspot.com/dart-archive/channels/be/raw/latest/editor/darteditor-linux-x64.zip)
Add this to the app.yaml file
env_variables:
DBG_ENABLE: 'true'
# disable health-checking because this is so annoying during debugging
vm_health_check:
enable_health_check: False
See How to disable health checking for `gcloud preview app run` for more details about customizing health checking.
Launch the server code of your app with glcoud --verbosity debug app run app.yaml or glcoud --verbosity debug app run app.yaml index.yaml
Wait until the Docker container is ready (check with docker ps if the Command column shows a value starting with /dart_runtime/dart_
Open DartEditor
Open Menu Run > Remote Connection...
Connect to: Command-line VM
Host: localhost if you dont use boot2dockeror the IP address returned by the commandboot2docker ip`
Port: 5005
Select Folder... select the directory which contains the source code of your project.
Click OK
Set breakpoints and continue as usual.

A first step is using the Observatory which includes a browser based debugger UI.
To make this work add the following lines to the app.yaml file
network:
forwarded_ports: ["8181"]
This might be useful as well to make the server.dart wait until we had the chance to set breakpoints using the observatory.
env_variables:
DART_VM_OPTIONS: '--pause-isolates-on-start'
boot2docker gives us the Docker ip (192.168.59.103) and after starting with gcloud preview app run app.yaml we can connect to http://192.168.59.103:8181 which should open the Observatory GUI.
I'm trying to run the Google App Engine Python 2.7 Hello World program and view it in a browser via Google App Engine Launcher. I followed the install and program instructions to the letter. I copied and pasted the code in the instructions to the helloworld.py file and app.yam1 and verified that they are correct and in the directory listed as the application directory. I hit run on the launcher and it runs with no errors, although I get no sign that is has completed (orange clock symbol next to app name). I get the following from the logs:
Running dev_appserver with the following flags: --skip_sdk_update_check=yes --port=8080 --admin_port=8000 Python command: /opt/local/bin/python2.7
When I try to open in the browser via the GAE Launcher, the 'browse' icon is grayed out and the browser won't open. I tried opening localhost:8080 in Firefox and Chrome as the tutorial suggests, but I get unable to connect errors from both.
How can I view Hello World in a browser? Is there some configuration I need to make on my machine?
I had the same problem. This seemed to fix it:
cd to google_appengine, run
python dev_appserver.py --port=8080 --host=127.0.0.1 /path/to/application
at this point there is a prompt to allow updates on running, I said Yes.
At this point the app was running as it should, also when I quit this and went in using the launcher again, that worked too.
I have to manually start python and make it point to my app folder, for instance in a command line window on Windows I am using python. I installed python in C:\Python27 and my sample app is in c:\GoogleApps\guestbook
C:\Python27>dev_appserver.py c:\GoogleApps\guestbook
and then I can start my app in the Google App Engine Launcher and hit localhost 8080
How about specifying --host argument? You can find it at the bottom of following doc.
https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/devserver
This might be a little late. But still someone might find it useful.
When ever you go and try changing the port number from 8080 to something else, it will not get updated. So the best option is:
Go to your user directory: eg: C:\Username
There will be a Google folder. Go inside
Open the file google_appengine_projects.ini
Change your port number from 8080 to whatever you like 8081
Save it and close the file.
Launch the GAE Launcher again and you will find the changes reflected and the app runs without issues.
7: Access the application using: http://localhost:NewPort/
This can be used to change ports both run port and admin port for your individual projects running locally.
Hope this helps!
The 8080 portion of your url is a port number. Firefox disables visiting url's of other ports by default. You have to enable them by doing the following: http://blog.christoffer.me/post/2012-02-20-how-to-remove-firefoxs-this-address-is-restricted/
Paraphrasing that website:
Open firefox and visit about:conf
In the Filter box, type in network.security.ports.banned.override
If you can't find such a preference, right click to open up the pop-up menu and pick New and then String
As preference name type network.security.ports.banned.override and 8080 as the value.
Done!
It's likely if this continues to not work that your browser is behaving properly (8080 is a fairly standard port). That means that its a problem with the server and we'd have to do some more debugging.
I have installed Jenkins on my Ubuntu 12.04 desktop machine using this guide:
https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Installing+Jenkins+on+Ubuntu
I also needed to follow this guide:
http://aslamnajeebdeen.com/blog/how-to-fix-apache-could-not-reliably-determine-the-servers-fully-qualified-domain-name-using-127011-for-servername-error-on-ubuntu
From my other machine (mac laptop) I now try to access Jenkins through safari:
http://192.168.1.100/jenkins
where 192.168.1.100 is the ip address of my desktop machine but I get an Error 404. I have also tried:
http://jenkins
but nothing happens. What am I missing?
The Jenkins service is running on my desktop PC:
service jenkins status
...
Jenkins Continuous Integration Server is running with the pid 3713
And if I enter: localhost:8080 in a browser on my desktop pc I get the jenkins web interface.
PROBLEM SOLVED:
I have followed this guide:
http://www.zzorn.net/2009/11/setting-up-hudson-on-port-80-on-debian.html
and it now works.
I had the same problem but not using Apache, rather only Jenkins on Ubuntu
I solved it by replacing HTTP_HOST=127.0.0.1 with HTTP_HOST=0.0.0.0 on /etc/default/jenkins
Jenkins is set to listen on port 8080 by default,
so you should point your browser to:
http://localhost:8080/
(or, in your case: http://192.168.1.100:8080/ )
EDIT:
If still not able to connect, you may wish to check your firewall settings.
