Ok I know it's something really dumb but how to upload

[Tom Brander]

I have been working on a sample app for a while and now I'm finally
ready to go, I have been using Python 2.6.1 (could that be the issue?)
The local app server and my app are getting on fine. so I go to
appcfg.py update C:\Users\DadLaptop\Documents\tombrander I cannot
enter anything into the server window and neither the python gui nor
the python command line recognize the command. I have already created
the app, with the same name on my account.
>>> appcfg.py update C:\Users\DadLaptop\Documents\tombrander/
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
>>>
It has update highlighted in red...

you use the command shell of Windows directly...
not inside the python interpreter.

it would be "C:\Program Files\Google\AppEngine\appcfg.py
--email=<user@domain> update C:\Users\DadLaptop\Documents\tombrander"

as a single line... I personally use Linux and have the devkit
unpacked in a folder
beside my working folders

"work/devkit" and my own site in "work/<sitename>"

then I can use "devkit/appcfg.py --email=<mygmailaddress> update
<sitename>"
while working in the "work" folder using bash
(linux equal to command.com for Windows)

I hope this helps somehow
Jeremy

Thank you for the quick reply, I could not get teh whole string to
take but I dis get a result from the windows cmd shell changesd to
root then did c:appcfg.py update c:\Users\DadLaptop\Documents
\tombrander
and that worked, using quotes around the whole string did not work for
some reason. There has got to be a better way!!!
Just this typing will be a real drag since the conventional Cntrl C
and Ctrl V don't work in cmd shell.. Back to the books, but then I
suppose the real solution it to pack the whole thing in a bat file!!

Your welcome

Im not staff...just someone who got past that hurdle and is on a later
one :)

Im just a little annoyed about the 1MB limitation since its blocking 2
files
for me to get a site online and working using GAE as they are slightly
larger
FLV's... beyond that I need to work out how to embed a complete forum
into
a single page somehow... fun fun fun.

You can copy and paste by using the System menu of the window.
You can open this menu by using Alt-Space or click on the top left icon
in the titlebar (for a cmd window it is a small c:\) In this menu you find a
submenu for clipboard operations.
If you want to copy text to the clipboard you first have to "Mark" the
text and then press "enter".

Those are all fine options. But the real answer is to write 2 or
3 .BAT files (start your server, upload, and *save to source control*
<-- that's the most important one) and install the Windows "Command
Prompt Here" extension.

Good luck,
James
