Building An Application with GCE and GAP

[Joe Seph]

Hello guys,

We have been struggling for weeks trying to implement  Google cloud platform into our application, The documentation is not clear enough  which make it even harder to implement something complex  without the struggling and asking for every step.

We have been asking everyone and unfortunately none has worked with Google cloud platform before and it seems that this community is the only place to ask  and our only hope  left for us to finish the implementation. we have few questions to ask.

Firstly can you Connect the GCE and GAP Together and run all functions including image processing ? someone told us you can't use Cloudstoragetool with GAP & GCE together. we are not Quite sure about this statement, but it sounds unlogical because GCE and GAE should be complementary to each other. 

Secondly We have successfully installed C panel into the GCE running CentOS 6.x and we were able to install GAE PHP SDK using this guide Link but we were unable to call any class from the SDK, The files of the SDK Exist on the disk but we can't call any function or class from it .

we have few Enquires from the Above Guide link. 

•  In that guild we were told to  create a directory called HelloWorld for testing, in our case what would be the directory if the project on the root of the server (Public_Html) Directory?
  
• We were told to create a file called app.yaml and this file would contain the handler of the project 
•  :# Main handler

• - url: /.*

   script: index.php

  what will be the contents of this file in our case?

• After Creating the App.yaml how we will be able to connect the GAE SDK to our project using this command "google_appengine/dev_appserver.py --php_executable_path=/usr/local/bin/php-cgi helloworld/"

I hope someone get back to us at earliest convenience. 

thanks .
