Go AppEngine remote_api sample not working - google-app-engine

Question

Are the Go AppEngine samples up to date?
I'm running into issues getting example/remote_api/datastore_info.go working for my test AppEngine running on localhost.
I've changed the client.PostForm from:
resp, err := client.PostForm("https://www.google.com/accounts/ClientLogin", v)
to:
resp, err := client.PostForm("http://localhost:35058/_ah/remote_api", v)
(35058 is the port reported for api_server during startup).
I've tried both 1.9.3 and latest 1.9.4 versions.
The api server reports:
ERROR 2014-05-06 20:57:56,378 api_server.py:215] Exception while handling

Answer 1

There were some bug fixes in 1.9.6; can you try with the latest SDK?

Answer 2

I've been exactly the same problem in whatever call to my development server

I've go version go1.4.2 (appengine-1.9.24) linux/amd64
Problem was I'm using the IP for "API" instead the IP for default module

You must use module host/por to place calls to your go application; API ip is for remote api, I think.
