playframework 1.2 sample application throws 505 when deployed to google-appengine
rao_555 via StackOverflow
I created a sample application in playframework 1.2 and tried to deploy it to google-appengine, the deployment showed no issues. but when I hit my application, it shows a 505 error.
when I checked the logs, I found that its throwing an error, and coming to the funny part, it shows a servlet exception, huhh! play is totally out of servlet/jsp world. how come it throws servlet exception?
The full stack trace is

Although Play doesn't use Servlets, to make Play work in J2EE containers, including GAE, play uses a Servlet wrapper to route requests from the J2EE container into the Play code.
From the exception you are getting, it looks like this Play servlet wrapper is not available. Are you deploying it using the GAE module within Play? This should create a WAR file and upload it directly to GAE for you. This should ensure that everything that is required is correctly copied across.
