Really simple question. I'm on Ubuntu 9.04 (I'm new to Ubuntu) and I can't find the dev server logs for GAE. Could somebody tell me where they are? Googling hasn't returned any result.
I think I had the same question, and got an answer: Where does GoogleAppEngineLauncher keep the local log files? (It's a Mac, not Ubuntu, but otherwise the question seems to be similar.)
In short: it turns out that these logs are not saved to a physical file but you can modify the source code to get this result. Details are described at the above link.

We are having trouble deploying our Google Appengine application. We get the following error message
from the indicated deployment command at the Unix shell prompt.
/home/leffstudent/appengine/bin/appcfg.sh update ~/u3/web/war -p proxy.wiu.edu:8080

Attempting to open it in your browser now.
Unable to open browser. Please open the URL above and copy the resulting code.
Please enter code:
There is no browser on this computer, a Linux virtual machine, used as the programming opportunity for the School of
Computer Sciences. We simply use putty to log in.
I cut and pasted the address and entered into Chrome into the computer that has run putty. I get the code in that browser. I cut that and tried to paste it back
into the browser. NO luck.
I get
"java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused"
(This has been difficult because this Putty does not seem to have menu items for cut and paste.)
I tried about seven times. Several times, I also tried simply typing the code in carefully. No luck.
The graduate student on the project also tried themselves--no luck!
Thanks for any insight. In particular, it seems I should I ask the system administrator who set up the disk slice with our School of Computer Sciences'
server for a "browser." What should I specifically ask for? I did not see any documentation of what the google appcfg.sh program is doing when it tries to "open it in your browser now."
We have a project on which five people have worked over several year time frame that is dead in the water because we can no longer
deploy.
I'm not sure why the code isn't working - it should. As a work-around why not:
push the code to a git repo (e.g. bitbucket)
pull it to a machine that does have a browser
Set up the browser-machine to run GCloud under the account you're hoping to authenticate with
Deploy from there
I"m (slowly) working on a app-engine app using the go language -- While I like many parts of the experience (the nice integration with google services and the go language itself) but I'm a bit suprised at the lack of debug facilities especially with app engine.
I know that you can log to the console (The lowest form of debugging IMHO) but all attempts at anything more clever (attaching gdb on the local instance) fails. (the build tools for app engine specifically seem to strip debug info)
I can't believe I'm the only one who has observed this so I'm wondering what other folks are doing to develop/debug in app engine?
There is not currently a better way than context.Errorf() and friends. Python just got pdb support in the 1.8.3 SDK. I have not heard of any similar debugger support for go. It is perhaps worth asking on the app engine go list about this.
I just red about your topic in this blog:
http://joshua.themarshians.com/hardcore-google-unit-testing.html
I can't give you an example but maybe it will help.
it's been an update and I thought to add what is the current state of affair.
The good news is the go tools now no longer strip debug symbols so if you are running on your local machine you can now get gdb support!
It's a bit of a process and ripe for some more automation (suggestions welcome)
in short:
look for the _app_go process
cd to the directory that it's running from
Attach to the process with the '-pid' command to gdb
Tell gdb the directory of source
Boom -- debugging.
So I was trying to link an image on my website as <img src="cat.png" alt="cat"/> and for some reason it wasn't working. I later found out that when uploaded to my server the file was labeled as "cat.PNG" so I inputted that and it fixed. However, when I was testing my site on localhost, it was fine. Why is this? Is this some security issue or is localhost just smarter when it comes to parsing files?
I know this is a weird and random question but I am curious. Thanks.
That depends on the operating system. Your server seems to run Linux which is normally case sensitive and if you run Windows on localhost it's not.
So, I can execute php scripts from the terminal, but when the script tries to connect to the database using mssql_connect(), I run into this problem. I have gone through almost all of the sources available for this problem. But, it seems like I have something different. I'm fairly new to Mac, but I have followed most of the steps like uncommenting
#LoadModule php5_module libexec/apache2/libphp5.so
from the httpd.conf file, turning on the web sharing under system preferences. However, I'm not sure if I need to uncomment php_mysql/(i).dll from the php.ini file as well, since I'm using ms sql and not my sql. Also, I do not seem to have php_mssql70.dll like it was suggested in one of the forums I ran into during my search. But, there are 2 lines in my .ini file that read
extension=php_pdo_mssql.dll
extension=php_pdo_mysql.dll \\Yes. They both read the same thing.
Can someone point me in the right direction please? I'm not sure if the information I gave is sufficient. But yes, I think I have read and tried to emulate 90% of the forums that claim to solve this problem.
NOTE: This post seemed quite close to what I am trying, given that the user is a noob at this. I haven't really set up PHP, Apache, etc by myself since I have only worked with Php and MySQL in school till now.
How to install/use php on mac v 10.7.2
Since you're not on Windows you need to ignore anyone mentioning anything containing '*.dll'.
Look for extensions.ini which should in the same folder as php.ini, or in a folder very close to it, and you should be able to enable it from there, it should be a .so file. If it is not already there then the extension is not installed at all. I have no idea how to add PHP extensions on OSX, though. :I
For one of the customers of my company, I have to get Gears working. To explain briefly, they have a site using the Gears local database and now want to really use localStorage (at least for browsers supporting it and still use Gears for the old ones).
To refactor the code and ensure that the HTML5 version works as the Gears version used to work (and that I do not break the existing system is also a plus). And here comes the problem: Gears is not supported anymore and seems unable to install.
My dev' machine is using OSX Snow leopard. I tried the Gears custom installer made by the authors of MailPlane (http://mailplaneapp.com/download/google_gears/) to enable gears on Safari. The installer runs without any issue and I have a "Google Gears settings" entry in Safari's menu. But the code does not work, here's the console output for the database creation code:
> google.gears.factory.create('beta.desktop')
Error
line: 2
message: "'undefined' is not a function (evaluating 'google.gears.factory.create('beta.desktop')')"
sourceId: 419639712
__proto__: Error
(this is the code I got from the customer).
In the console, when I try accessing the Gears factory, I just get a simple html object:
> google.gears.factory
<object style="display: none; " width="0" height="0" type="application/x-googlegears"></object>
In Gears preferencies, there's a site of sites for which I can allow Gears to run, but I can't add localhost there (I can't add anything in fact).
As I can't get Safari/Gears working, I decided to setup a WinXP virtual machine, maybe it would work here.
I was able to download the Gears installer. But this one needs file that have been removed from Google servers (at least I guess, but I don't have any firewall installed so I don't see what could block the installer when getting the files ...).
I also tried old Chrome installers (apparently Gears was shipped in Chrome 12-) but none of the installers work (they just, well, do nothing. I even tried to start them from the command line to expect a bit of output but I got nothing).
Another option would be to get a Firefox gears add-on, but they all seem to have disappeared :/
So, the question (finally): does anyone here still have to use Gears and how do you get it running on new machines ?
Cheers,
Vincent
I think The Google Gears API is no longer available.
Please see https://developers.google.com/gears/ page.
