Hi,

I would like to ask if there is any way to solve a problem when the Datastore Admin crashes because the application id is quite long. Specifically, the error in the browser is the following:

The server at ah-builtin-python-bundle-dot-latest-dot-[my-application-id].appspot.com can't be found, because the DNS lookup failed. DNS is the network service that translates a website's name to its Internet address. This error is most often caused by having no connection to the Internet or a misconfigured network. It can also be caused by an unresponsive DNS server or a firewall preventing Google Chrome from accessing the network.

The application id I am using has 27 characters.

Thanks a lot!

Hello,

DNS can address only 63 chars, so if your application ID is longer than 23 chars ("ah-builtin-python-bundle-dot-latest-dot-" are 40 chars, so 40 + 23 = 63), it will fail when you try to access to the datastore admin.

For further information look at the page in Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System

Change your application ID (or better said, create a new one, cause you cannot change your App's ID). 

Best regards,
Jesús.
