Sorry that you're having problems. We're aware of this issue and it is already fixed in the next SDK release (coming out in a week). As a temporary workaround please try to run
gcloud --verbosity debug preview app setup-managed-vms
(and choose Go in the list of options)
several times (until success) to get the base image for go runtime.
Another options is to try pulling the base go image (google/appengine-go) from containers-prod
bucket using google/docker-registry https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/google/docker-registry/
Pull the google/docker-registry
docker pull google/docker-registry
Get your credentials
gcloud auth print-refresh-token
Store your refresh token and your bucket (containers prod in a registry-params.env file)
cat registry-params.env
GCP_OAUTH2_REFRESH_TOKEN=your-refresh-token
GCS_BUCKET=containers-prod
Run registry
docker run -d --env-file=registry-params.env -p 5000:5000 google/docker-registry
Pull the image
docker pull localhost:5000/google/appengine-go
Retag the image
docker tag localhost:5000/google/appengine-go google/appengine-go
Remove old tag containing registry name
docker rmi localhost:5000/google/appengine-go
Check your image is in there. You'll see something like
docker images | grep google
You'll see something like
google/appengine-go latest 35ef8e2a9c5e 13 days ago 206 MB
Don't forget to stop your registry container
docker ps
docker stop <CONTAINER ID>
