Hi All,

I'm brand new to Scala and lift framework. I have created a very
simple hello world web app in lift framework and deployed it
successfully on tomcat.
Now I want to know whether I can deploy the same lift application on
Google app engine or not? I have the war ready, so in I thought that
it should have been as simple as deploying any war on tomcat or
websphere!!! But I see it is not ;-(
Can anyone please guide me as to how I can deploy my mini lift app on
GAE?

Thanks in advance.
A Newbie

There are caveats though, the major one is the lack of actors.

Great TylerWeir!!! Thanks a lot... Can you please suggest any kind of
documentation for this... sorry to be bothering you for that. Any
tutorial would be of great help.

Cheers.

Try http://github.com/ymnk/lift-gae-jdo for a example, personally I
don't care for the limited approach GEA gives you, but that's me....

Hi,

Is this the easiest/simplest instructions/setup to deploy a Lift app on GAE?
It seems to involve datanucleus-enhancer, which I know nothing about.
I'm not sure what other dependency it has. Is it required?

Thanks
Jack
