Can't deploy to GAE - the application doesn't exist
Devology Ltd via StackOverflow
Using Eclipse, I am experiencing an error when trying to deploy a rather basic web app with JAX-RS and JAXB. It runs okay locally, but when trying it on the remote servers I get the message shown below...
'Deploying to Google' has encountered a problem / This application does not exist
Below shows my appengine-web.xml
The XML file illustrates that I am using the same name in the xml as what's specified in the project properties...
The output window show...

Any answers will be appreciated. At one point my browser was not logged in to the target google account, so I swapped to the correct one a little later, Google does render the application name as expected.

I know this question is super old but I had this issue all day and finally I found a solution. Maybe it will help someone out in the future.
After you create a project in Google Cloud Platform, you must go to google cloud shell in your project and run the command
gcloud beta app create
After you run this command, you will get prompted to choose a region. Then go back to eclipse and try deploying it. It worked for me.
