Has anyone tested on Ubuntu7.10 platform?

[Steve]

I always get error as following:
...
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/SocketServer.py", line 341, in server_bind
self.socket.bind(self.server_address)
File "<string>", line 1, in bind
socket.error: (99, 'Cannot assign requested address')

Please tell me in detail how you installed and tested helloworld app.
Thanks a lot.

I have GAE running in Ubuntu 7.10 without any problem.
Just unzip de SDK & run "dev_appserver.py app_name"

Perhaps coulb be a problem with an used port, try:

dev_appserver.py --port=8888 app_name

(or any other unused port you want)

Thanks.
I always use the command "python dev_appserver.py app_name",Is that
OK?

Have you verified that the loopback interface lo on my machine is up?

run ifconfig and see in the lo section if you can find "UP LOOPBACK
RUNNING"

if not, run "sudo ifconfig lo up"

Hmm. Ubuntu should have a binding for python, so you should be able to just write;

./dev_appserver.py app_name

Python should be resolved and used automagically
