Laravel FatalErrorException on Google App Engine - google-app-engine

I am deploying an laravel application in Google app engine. I have installed SDK and python. I can deploy it online, but when run application localy by using this command from cmd:
python dev_appserver.py --skip_sdk_update_check=yes --port=8080
--admin_port=8000 --php_executable_path=C:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.12\php-cgi.exe C:\laravel-master
It shows the following error:
PHP Startup: apc_fcntl_create: could not open C:\Windows\.apc.a02796
I really need to run it locally because I can't test it online. Pls I need some help

This is the cache having problems to send write file commands to your Windows SO. A workaround to this is to locally disable APC by adding:
apc.enabled = "0"
Do your SDK php.ini file.
But it's better to keep it enabled in your GAE application.

Stuck on "Get Started" page of Google App Engine. "gcloud app deploy" fails

I am stuck on the first page of instructions for Google App Engine
https://console.cloud.google.com/appengine/start/reception
I downloaded and installed the cloud SDK.
"gcloud init" worked.
I am stuck at "Deploy to App Engine".
When I type "gcloud app deploy" in Terminal, I get two errors.
"ERROR: An app.yaml (or appengine-web.xml) file is required to deploy this directory as an App Engine application. Create an app.yaml file using the directions at https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/flexible/python/configuring-your-app-with-app-yaml"
The page it says to go to does not give directions for creating the file. What is the command? Also, why is this error happening at all? If I follow the instructions on the Get Started page, I should not get an error. Some instructions must be missing or something not working when I install the SDK.
The second error I get is "ERROR: (gcloud.app.deploy) [/Users/chucky] could not be identified as a valid source directory or file."
Again, there must be instructions missing because I am following them.
Screen Shot
gcloud app deploy is for deploying a project. This means you need to have a folder with a sample project. The project will need to have an app.yaml file. Essentially, the steps are
Download and install the Google Cloud SDK
Run gcloud init to initialize the SDK (this makes you to login to Google and grant access to gcloud to your account; also sets up your default project)
Create your project (or copy an existing one) where project is your App i.e. the application you are working on. This project should have an app.yaml file.
Then deploy your project to production by running gcloud app deploy. You first have to change directory to your project folder. If you don't want to do this, you have to specify the full path to your app.yaml file.
An alternative for steps 3 - 4 is to use a Graphical User Interface (GUI) like one from us - https://nocommandline.com . You just click a button to create a new project and it will create a shell project ('hello world') with all the necessary files. To deploy your project, you also click another button 'Deploy' and it will take care of deploying your project.
From the link:
https://console.cloud.google.com/appengine/start/reception
First, you need to download the resources. You can use the Cloud SDK, Cloud Shell, directly download from github or other terminal to download the resources files. For example, you want to deploy a Python app using Cloud SDK in Windows OS:
Install and open Cloud SDK.
Copy the resources file from github:
From Cloud SDK run:
git clone https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/python-docs-samples
Go to directory of your application files:
cd python-docs-samples/appengine/standard_python3/hello_world
Deploy and browse your application
Deploy using the command:
gcloud app deploy --project PROJECTID
Browse using the command:
gcloud app browse --project PROJECTID
If you see the Hello World! you've successfully deployed your application.

How to run GoogleAppEngineLauncher in terminal window(Google cloud SDK shell)?

Google no longer support the GoogleAppEngineLauncher program.
When I installed GoogleAppEngine I just got Google Cloud SDK shell. I want to add a project to GoogleAppEngine to run and deploy.
I got these links and cant understand
Local Development Server
Deploying the Application
How to do it both locally and online ?
"Quickstart for Windows" is a good starting point for new users of Cloud SDK.
In order to deploy and run a GAE application with the Cloud SDK you have to use shell/command prompt, as opposed to GoogleAppEngineLauncher where you had a GUI. The steps are:
Open the shell
In the shell change the current directory to where your project's app.yaml. is. For example: CD C:\Users\AQueue\Projects\MyGAEApplication and check that app.yaml file is there using dir command.
run gcloud app deploy
This should be it.
gcloud is one of the most important tools in the SDK that allows to interact with many products and services from Google Cloud Platform. If you want to read more about gcloud you can start with this overview.

GoogleAppEngine wordpress complains (Could not create directory) on update and plugin install

I have a problem updating wordpress or installing wordpress plugin in my local version of google app engine. I get the following message.
Downloading install package from
https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/event-espresso-decaf.4.8.38.decaf.zip…
Unpacking the package…
Could not create directory.
With the same code base I am able install plugin using MAMP (Macintosh, Apache, MySQL, and PHP). However fails with google Pyton script (dev_appserver.py).
I tried changing the permission of the file system by giving privilege to all user for write. Tried executing as sudo dev_appserver.py .. Followed the advice in other post, No luck.
Whats the problem here?, With MAMP all looks good in my local, but the same code break as I deploy to GAE (​appcfg.py -A APP-ID update app.yaml). Whats the problem here
Cannot write to file on Google App Engine Dev server with PHP?
Staring SDK 1.9.18, dev_appserver disables local file writing by default to better simulate the production environment. You can enable file writing by adding "google_app_engine.disable_readonly_filesystem=1" to your php.ini file.
I also wrote a blog post about running WordPress on App Engine flexible environment at:
https://wp.gaeflex.ninja/2016/03/25/using-wordpress-multisite/
Please give it a try too.

Google App Engine on PHPStorm 10

I have trouble running/debugging Google App Engine application from PHPStorm lately. It seems that PHPStorm adds a dot ( . ) at the end of the command when running dev_appserver.py
/usr/bin/python /Users/maksim/google-cloud-sdk/platform/google_appengine/dev_appserver.py app.yaml ember.yaml dispatch.yaml --php_executable_path=/Applications/GoogleAppEngineLauncher.app/Contents/Resources/GoogleAppEngine-default.bundle/Contents/Resources/php55/php-cgi --host=0.0.0.0 --enable_sendmail=true .
dev_appserver.py: error: unrecognized arguments: .
Process finished with exit code 2
When I run the command without dot from my terminal, it is working perfectly.
/usr/bin/python /Users/maksim/google-cloud-sdk/platform/google_appengine/dev_appserver.py app.yaml ember.yaml dispatch.yaml --php_executable_path=/Applications/GoogleAppEngineLauncher.app/Contents/Resources/GoogleAppEngine-default.bundle/Contents/Resources/php55/php-cgi --host=0.0.0.0 --enable_sendmail=true
How can I fix this? Can JetBrains team update the plugin for Google App Engine or is there a workaround to remove that dot from being added to the script?
EDIT: forgot to add Google App Engine SDK version which is release: "1.9.28"
I encountered a similar problem with PyCharm/python.
Creating a custom Run configuration for my project as suggested in this answer worked for me: Run App Engine development server with modules in PyCharm, a similar solution might work for PHPStorm.

Deploy GAE server through a deploy script without using App launcher

Is there a way I can deploy the GAE server without using the GAE launcher. I would like to deploy my application through terminal/command line.
The tool is called appcfg.py or appcfg.sh for java.
