Hello,

I got this warning and can't upload files and communicate with app
engine in order to unload file and create index for tables.

"WARNING appengine_rpc.py:399 ssl module not found.
Without the ssl module, the identity of the remote host cannot be
verified, and
connections may NOT be secure. To fix this, please install the ssl
module from
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/ssl .
To learn more, see http://code.google.com/appengine/kb/general.html#rpcssl
. "

Need help to solve this problem.

Thank you.

Have you tried to install the ssl module from pypi? If so, what
problem are you having with installing it?

I am having this problem also. Found this thread in Google Groups:
http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine/browse_thread/thread/9eb30d64423a37ea.

The module requires Visual Studio to build and install. To have to
install Visual Studio just for this seems a bit heavy. If some kind
soul out there could build an MSI and post it, it would be wonderful.

This message is a warning and not an error--it should not block you
from uploading everything.

You are right, Matthew. It does not block. Still, the message is there
for a reason and uploading without SSL increases the exposure. While
my site is in QA, I'm OK just putting up with the warning. I'd need to
tighten up my procedures before going live. Hopefully by then someone
will have posted an MSI.

One could argue that taking an MSI from someone you don't really know
is as risky as not using SSL at all, because they could have modified
the code before building the executable. That's a valid argument. I
wish Google did it and placed it on the App Engine downloads page :-).

Thanks.
