Dear All

I can't understand how this can happen. Please can someone explain?

- I have a python appengine app, working at example.appspot.com (not
the real url).
- I download the source code with

$ appcfg.py download_app -A example -V 1 example_gaedl

- I run the downloaded code in the GAE launcher.
- The app fails to run and raises the error AppConfigNotFoundError

The downloaded source code has no app.yaml!

My questions are:
- how can this run on the appengine if it has no app.yaml?
- could the app config be there in some obfuscated way that works on
the appengine but not in the launcher?
- is there any way I can reconstruct the app config?

Any clues greatly appreciated. I find this very mysterious.

With thanks and best wishes

Ivan

Hey Ivan,
When I download app code, I get the app.yaml too. Unless you've got
a ton of entries in yours, it shouldn't be that difficult to
reconstruct it. Even better, just grab it out of your source control
repo.
