I have bought a new domain from GoDaddy using Google Apps Free Edition before a few years ago (before google stop offering the free edition of Google Apps). Then i mapped this new domain with my Google Sites web site.
Now i need to remove this domain from my Google Sites web site and point it to my new web site hosted on Google App Engine.
I tried to delete domain mapped to my Google Sites web site from google apps control panel to point my new web site hosted on Google App Engine. but i got below error.
Server error
We are unable to process your request at this time, please try again
later.
I have tried several times. but no result.
How can i solve this ? How can i remove my domain from my Google Sites web site and point it to my new web site hosted on Google App Engine ?
You need to update the dns records on GoDaddy to point at your app engine URL.

I'm trying to use a subdomain to serve a matching version id with Google App Engine and Google Apps. I've gone through the documentation but it's still unclear to me.
On this page regarding custom domains, it says I'm in a special case for using Google Apps. test.example.com -> to load "test" version of the application.
https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/domain -
Note that the instructions on this page are for App Engine apps that use an ordinary HTTP connection and are not served through Google Apps. Here are some related procedures that require different instructions:
This leads me to here https://support.google.com/a/answer/91080
It looks like the only way to add this subdomain in Google Apps is the Sites URL field.
Will the Sites URL correspond to the App Engine version ID?
You only need to use Google Apps to map an appengine app to a domain if you need https. Right now, Google Apps is the only way you can upload an SSL cert - hence this restriction.
If you do map your appengine app to a domain through google apps, you can do what you want by using wildcard subdomain mapping. Read more here..
The whole process is tedious, slow, and painful, and thats only when its not confusing, so put aside a good few hours to make all the changes and wait for DNS to propagate.
I have just started looking into using Google App Engine for a project I'm developing. The project will have an Android and iPhone app as well as a web application that a set of users can log into. I have a couple basic questions concerning the use of Google App Engine...
Is it possible to use google app engine in conjunction with your own web app? Or would I post the web app itself on Google App Engine? Is it that I'd use my web app AND Google App Engine, or would those be the same thing? I guess this is the main point I'm not clear on.
I'm kind of concerned about putting all of our data on Google's servers and not directly owned by myself. Is this just something I'll have to get over?
Thanks for any help!
Edit: The web app will need to have a decent amount of functionality in addition to the mobile apps. Is the Google App Engine mostly for projects which only/mainly have mobile apps?
Google App Engine includes Google Cloud Endpoints for Android, iOS and web clients. The client web app can be hosted on AppEngine or elsewhere. If you host the client web app in the same application that hosts the Cloud Endpoints, authentication and data sharing is easier to achieve.
Yes, you'll just have to get over putting all of your data on Google's servers. Google does not publish or index your data, except for the data your app itself publishes to anonymous clients.
I am new to Google Cloud Storage.
I want to try Google Cloud Storage to host my web-app. Is it possible to upload my website to Google Cloud Storage and connect own domain without Google Apps premium subscription?
If yes, please check my steps below, how I tried to make it works, and let me know where I where wrong?
I have created Cloud Console project for my web-app. My Project ID: rippl-io
Then linked the domain of the web-app to existing Google Apps account as a secondary (as I were redirected to Google Apps after trying to add new domain from the cloud console). Domain name I am going to use: rippl.io
In App Engine settings in Google Apps I am clicking "Add new url" and selecting rippl.io domain. But it returns error.
I am guessing I can add only primary domain and that must be a reason of error. So, next, to change rippl.io to primary domain I need to upgrade Google Apps to premium. Are any other ways to add own domain to my website on Google Cloud Storage other than buying premium Google Apps?
To add domain # Google Cloud Storage, first you need to verify it from Google Webmaster Tools, then create a bucket exactly matching your domain name e.g. www.example.com upload your data, files etc, then add CNAMEentry www.example.com IN CNAME c.storage.googleapis.com.
Please remember, Google Cloud Storage will work for plain html webpages it will not execute any server side codes like php
gsutil web set -m index.html -e missing.html gs://www.example.com
If you still have php page, you can use below code, but php code will get displayed in webpage view source, it will not get execute:
gsutil setmeta -h Content-Type:text/html gs://www.example.com/demo.php
To add domain # Google App Engine, you need Google Apps for Business account to verify it.
Overview of problem. Site was running on a Free version of Google Apps for over a year as a simple web page. We started developing it we deleted the old Google Apps and and migrated it to our primary App Engine account to avoid billing issues of two+ accounts. We couldn't get App Engine to recognize the Custom Domain even though it was in the Domains tab of our Google Apps Account. In searching I found Google limits using domains on App Engine (http://support.google.com/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=182081 scroll down to App Engine) I had to recreate a separate Google Apps account to verify ownership of the domain. Site is up and operational now outside of SSL. The issue is that when I go to https://admin.google.com/CPanelHome#DomainSettings/subtab=domains and type the app id to enable SSL on the domain Apps account it routes me to create an App Engine app instead of to billing. Because the app is running on the primary App Engine account not the Domain account.
It seems someone must have ran across this and solved it. How do I enable my primary Google Apps account to verify ownership of the domains and allow App Engine to use it? I have a lot of domains that will be hosted on App Engine and a lot of integration between the sites that would really need to be all under a single account to facilitate.
I noticed in searching that Google is offering a free year of Google Apps for customers using App Engine to host a application. Is Google expecting every domain to have a full Google Apps account and host on separate App Engine accounts? If so that would really limit our ability to use App Engine.
After waiting for three days for an answer I am moving on. I believe I tried every way imaginable to accomplish getting multiple domains on a primary Google Apps account to be verified and have SSL enabled. I went so far as to try it with a domain that has never had any Google services. Just in case there were some settings that were causing issues from left over configuration.
So the resolution of this at this time is Google expects you to have a full Google Apps account per domain to enable SSL, or Google App Engine on it. I believe they will be removing the Free Google App Account in the near future. This effectively means that hosting on App Engine will get expensive as a Google App Account is $50/year, and if you use a CloudSQL instance it will be at minimum $9/mo. That is on top of the bandwidth and usage fees.
I have already deactivated billing and disabled the apps on those accounts and have moved them over to a VPS. This is the third year I have spent a lot of time trying to get basic sites using SSL established on Google. While this year it is possible to do it, in the end you pay an arm and a leg for it.
I love Google and really want App Engine to be viable. But I just don't think they will pull it together. All my friends have went with Azure, RackSpace, and the granddaddy Amazon. It really makes me sad that Google is so far from viable and even worse that Azure just works.
If anyone at Google wishes to contact me feel free to do so. If there is something I missed feel free to open this and give directions on how to host multiple domains on a single App Engine / Apps account with SSL. I would greatly appreciate it.
What is the difference between google apps and google app engine?
Google Apps is a Web-based hosted software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution (gmail / docs / talk / site / calendar on your own domain).
Google App Engine is a platform-as-a-service (PaaS) solution. It is something like EC2, but with only specific (Python, Java, PHP and Go) runtime environments available.
Google apps offers google web applications (gmail, docs, calendars, etc)
Google app engine is a service to host your own web applications
See this post on the webapps SE site describing the difference between the services.
In simple words:
With google apps you can get a set of work application such as Google Drive, Gmail, Calendar...
With google app engine (GAE) you can create applications servers with little effort. There are others similar PaaS, heroku is one of the most famous.
Google Apps is a suite of services for businesses and organizations. It includes: GMAIL, Google Drive, Calendar, Docs etc. Many of these applications are available separately with a standard Google Account.
Google App Engine is PaaS (Platform as a Service) solution. Google App Engine is a way to write your own Web applications and have them hosted on Google servers. Google App Engine customers are programmers who want a scalable platform for their Internet applications.
Google App Engine is same as hosting, Google Apps is same as office softrawe
Google Apps include "Drive" Drive is complete solution for office requirements. Spreadsheet,presentations,documents etc. and have extra properties as Form Builder (for simple data collection) and Cloud file storage. But Google apps haven't any solution alternatively to MS Access.
