I am migrating my app to HRD manually (I know there is a the tool for that).
At the end of the migration process I need to route all the domains that are connected to the old app-id to the new app-id (I don't want to redirect).
I know this is done automatically at the end of the migration (when using google's tool)
I want to make an alias myself (manually)
I think there used to be an option in the application settings panel but I can't find it now.
Is there a way to add an application alias?
Thanks
The only way I found is to contact google support.
They are the only ones who can do it...

Is there a way to create a new Datastore entity kind via some interactive means for Go App Engine apps? The datastore viewer won't let me add new entity kinds, and the interactive console doesn't seem to support Go.
I'm trying to upload some configuration data to datastore, including sensitive data that I don't want to appear in code. So far the best method I can come up with is to write some code to write an empty configuration entity, deploy, run, then use the datastore viewer to set the values.
Thanks in advance.
You absolutely can add new Entity Kinds in the Console.
In the Cloud Console, Click on the Datastore menu item, then 'Create an Entity'. Handy link, just select your project name
Then in the Kind field, just type in your desired Kind name.
First of all your code is safe at AppEngine - nobody can download it. At least nobody outside of Google. You can deploy it to a dedicated version/module and restrict usage to yourself (check current user, ask pass-phrase, etc in your code).
Second you can use Remote API - this way you do not upload any code to AppEngine. You can create entities remotely as you wish using secure HTTPS connection.
I've just released a simple Drupal based site on a hosting partner.
The development was done by, first running a install script provided by my hosting partner. The script installed a default Drupal site eith a database.
After this I just logged in to my site and used admin tools to configure my site.
If that was step one,, step two will be to extend my site with one or two extra functions and improve look and feel.
My question is,,, how do I do that without interfering with my site witch now is "live"?
Are there some established methods and tools for doing this??
/regards

That depends on what you want to do and how you have your site set up so far. If you have one page that is set as frontpage, then you can make another page and test your new functions on that one. Or you could install another site, set it up in a similar way and try it there first.
There's of course loads of ways to do everything. You can start searching for "drupal deployment workflow" and go from there.
I have just completed a migration from a master/slave to HRD. During this migration I was forced to change my app name from myapp.appspot.com to myapp-hrd.appspot.com. I have set up an alias so my users can still use the old site url.
But I find it rather messy to have two apps where the one just forward requests to the other.
Is there any way I can migrate my new myapp-hrd back to myapp?
The only way I can think of is to erase my old myapp and then migrate from myapp-hrd to it, but it takes 3 days to delete an GAE app. And 3 days downtime is not an option. I have to keep myapp running since the url is hardcoded in a lot of android phones.
Even if you delete your old app, you won't be able to create a new app with the same identifier. Did you use the migration tool? If so, the new application should now be serving both the new and old app URLs. Otherwise, I recommend you report a production issue so that someone from Google links the apps manually.
The application(JSF+hibernate) is been deployed using the vmc commands as on the cloudfoundry site. able to see the welcome page. postgreSQl service is binded with the application but the application is not able to connect with the database.
And also viewed about the VCAP_SERVICES using java but dont know much about it rather how to create it.
Cloud Foundry uses auto-reconfiguration if you have one service (either MySQL or Postgres) bind to your application. That means you don't need to touch your code at all!
Please review the following article on our docs site:
http://docs.cloudfoundry.com/frameworks/java/spring/spring.html#using-cloud-foundry-services-in-spring-applications
If you still have issues, go ahead and upload a war file of your app and we can take a look.
I don't want to waste any more of my 10 appspot.com subdomains for test projects. Is there an elegant way to have multiple appengine apps, each to its own folder, e.g. xx.appspot.com/myapp1, xx.appspot.com/myapp2? I want the configuration to be identical or very close to the actual deployment configuration at a subdomain's root.
Just ask for more apps. Google would rather give you more apps than have you work around the limit. See here
What you could maybe do is (ab-)use the different versions for completely different projects. In this case you do not have to change anything in web.xml.
http://1.latest.xx.appspot.com for myapp1
http://2.latest.xx.appspot.com for myapp2
They do share the same datastore and memcache and task queues, but you would have the same situation with separating the paths. And if the table names do not collide, that should not be a problem.
You do get different admin consoles (log viewers etc) for each version.
You could always create a new Google account and get 10 new apps, right?
You could use dummy Google accounts for your test projects, and add your original Google account as a developer to a project you decide to actively work on... That way your original Google account doesn't get "polluted" by test projects.
