I have been using GAE and Endpoints for a couple weeks now. I see when I make changes to my code, the devserver will automatically pick up the changes and I am able to sometimes run tests against my updated API in the local API browser. However, I have also noticed some instances where it appears the changes were not picked up automatically and my API browser was hitting old code.
What is the proper process for updating my application to test locally? Do I have to restart my devserver? Do I need to refresh my browser and build new request objects? Can I simply execute a previous request again? (from experience, the last question appears to be no).
Thanks.
While working with the Development Server, I have found that it is best to :
Restart the Server &
Refresh the browser to ensure that any updated services definition is picked up by the API Explorer.

I just released my react app in a production environment in Cloud Foundry, but the only problem is that if I make changes to the app, and reupload the app, my users don't see the changes unless they clear their browser data, what can I do?
Reason for this issue: Browser is using its cache not your build to serve the client
Remedy to outcome: Inform the changes in metadata.json
metadata.json is a file that swings between request and browser checks for any mismatch with it's cache. if no then cache is served to client.
There are more then one way, thus am not telling direct solution, instead gothrough the below link will take to through various steps to follow

I am trying to run BlogEngine.NET. It works fine locally in Visual Studio but whenever I publish it outside of my local computer none of the posts are showing up.
I think this is because none of the scripts or CSS are being loaded (the posts are done via AngularJS). I've made sure that the read and write permissions are allowed in IIS so I know that isn't the problem.
I believe that AngularJS isn't loading properly, as when I go to the admin panel the url returned with the 404 error is this:
8926/admin/%7B%7BSiteVars.RelativeWebRoot%7D%7Dadmin/#/dashboard
instead of:
8926/admin/#/dashboard
Even If I manually take out all of the %7B%7BSiteVars.RelativeWebRoot%7D%7Dadmin text, the posts still don't show up as they do locally which leads me to believe the posts are also tied to AngularJS as well.
Does anyone know how to fix this? This may not be a BlogEngine.NET problem as much as it is just a loading of Javascript and CSS problem inside of IIS
The documentation for my project is here.
BlogEngine.Net had moved to GitHub that is where the latest updates are at.
Best to go here:
https://github.com/rxtur/BlogEngine.NET
and try again with a fresh install.
I have a fresh install working with no issues here:
http://blogengine07.azurewebsites.net
Took a total of around 30 mins to it it 100% up and running, creating new web app service,database, change web.config, publish to Azure, and making some changes in settings.
What web host are you using to host your website?
You can also try Azure Web App Service for free here:
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/try/app-service/web/?language=cs
If you can get it to work there but not at your current web host then that points to a web server issue, since you are able to run it locally and on Azure.
Hope this helps.
Have a great Day!

I have created a small project in Google apengine and like it apart from one thing: It seems virtually impossible to delete or change an endpoint, once it has been made. The API often stays the same, regardless of code changes in the java endpoint classes. I tried to delete the complete API, but that is not possible either. Is there any way to do this?
RE: Deletion
it's not currently supported, but we're working on it.
RE: API Changes
The Google APIs Explorer web app aggressively caches, so you'll need to clear your cache or force a refresh when you update your API server side to see the changes in the client.
I'm getting some strange issues with google app engine serving old versions of files. I have included some logging in one of my servlets and deployed to google app engine several times over the last 24 hours. However, instead of seeing the logging i added, I'm seeing logs from a previous version of the file every time the servlet runs.
I've tried changing versions and redeploying but this doesnt seem to fix the problem.
I'm using Eclipse Juno with the app engine plugin if that makes a difference.
Any ideas what I can try or what I might be doing wrong?
I had a similar problem recently, and that I fixed by logging into appengine.google.com>MyAppIdentifier>(Main)>Versions and selecting the current version as the default.
This should not only serve your latest version, but also use the latest version for log viewing and other administrative tasks.
In the logs, make sure that you're checking the correct version:
Otherwise redeploy to a brand new version and check that version explicitly directly from the version url that can be found under the Versions section.
Make sure that before redeploying your APP after making changes you Remove Launch and Remove All Terminated launches by pressing the double cross buttons next to the "clear console" buttons on the console window in Eclipse...I hope this solve your problem.

Not sure if this is an account or billing specific setting, but I found that App Engine started not updating to my latest app deploy once I reached 50 Versions in my App Engine list.
After deleting a bunch of old versions (taking down to 30) on next deploy it picked up my latest changes immediately.
It could be due to caching issue. Try reloading the website by adding a query parameter . Eg <website-url>?q=1 and see if changes are reflected
Open the url -> latest-version-number-dot-website-url . Latest version number can be obtained by clicking on version menu item on the side bar as seen below
If you have app.yaml file in your source code. Try removing headers related to caching and deploy and check to confirm its a caching issue. Caching headers could be of below form
Cache-Control: public, max-age=604800, immutable
Also make sure your project compiles correctly and doesn't contain any errors. I had this problem basically because I was deploying old compiled code, while it gave me an error "you have errors in your project, are you sure you want to deploy?"
I tried all the suggestions on SO, but ultimately, I found the best fix.
Because I transferred domain names and web hosting, I neglected to change my Domain's Resource Records. After making sure my code worked properly with the application (appname.appspot.com), I created a Custom Domain found in Console menu > App Engine > Settings > Custom domains
After you add the custom domain, make sure you change your Domain setting's CNAME www alias to the prescribed value (for me it was ghs.googlehosted.com).
Since changing that CNAME value, all of my subsequent deploys updated immediately. Hope this works for you and all others. Happy coding!
The gcloud (at list in python) has problem with line 'skip_files' in app.yaml,
So you can try the old method of deploying app with app engine,
use appcfg.py instead of gcloud.
see how in https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/python/tools/uploadinganapp
As soon as I figured out how to invoke my app as a Backends app, my log messages stopped appearing.
I found this helpful post which says the Backends logs are kept separately and that I need to switch to Backends view by selecting the named backend from the dropdown at the top of the admin console, but I don't see anything Backends specific in that list to select.
Perhaps this is a clue... when I invoke my app via myapp.appspot.com/dostuff, in the log I see I'm getting the DeadlineExceededError after 60 secs, indicating it's not running as a Backends app. But when I invoke it via mybackend.myapp.appspot.com/dostuff, it continues running as needed, but no log entries!
Seems like I'm missing something. Thanks.
Somehow my app wasn't fully recognized by GAE as a Backend app. And therefore my backend instances weren't available in the drop-list. Seeing that others had similar trouble with a Python 2.7 app (ex.) that had been initially uploaded as a 2.5 app, I created a new app in GAE and uploaded to there and it worked. Sorry I don't have a more definitive answer.
Before all was working well, I also ended up creating an empty /_ah/start handler as suggested by someone in this thread. Also if you're deploying a multi-threaded backend, make sure to check this post out -- there's some important stuff I didn't run across in the docs.
