Hey.. after the Google Plugin updated, i can't upload my app...

I getting these error message:

java.io.IOException: Error posting to URL:
https://appengine.google.com/api/appversion/create?app_id=XXX&version=1&
403 Forbidden

You do not have permission to modify this app (app_id=u'tXXX').

I have only one account for the app and it's marked as "owner" so.. I
have no idea what happend. I looked for the email that is defined in
the eclipse plugin but I didn't find them.. anybody an idea?

Regards Markus

Hi Markus,
It sounds like you've got something out-of-whack with the username /
password, maybe you've used another account? Using the command line
tools to deploy, I have a ~/.appcfg_cookies file. You might delete
that file then try to deploy again.

Hello,

 

I Updatedf the Google Plugin last week and started having the same problem.

Do you use more that one app-engine account?

 

As my good friend Inspector Jacques Clouseau would say “The problem is solved”.

 

I had no problems logging into my app-engine account to check and add applications thru my browser.

 

While back in the Eclipse SDK I noticed that the Google Plug-in keeps track of the app-engine account that it is logging in as (visible in the lower left corner of the screen).

I had never noticed this before, it may be a new feature.

 

The last deployment that I did was using my Brothers app-engine account.

 

Once logging out and logging in thru the Google plug-in for Eclipse all is fine.

 

I hope that this may help some of the other members, it is simple enough, just didn’t see any mention of it in the app-engine group.

Hello,

 

Just did some more checking of the Google Plug-in for Eclipse documentation.

 

Deploying your Web Application

To deploy your web application, you will need to create an application from the App Engine Administration Console, at the following URL: https://appengine.google.com/. If you already have one, then you can skip this step.

Once you have an application ID, just right-click on your project, and select Google > App Engine Settings... from the context menu. Enter your application ID into the Application ID text box. Click OK.

Right-click on your project and select Google > Deploy to App Engine. In the resulting Deploy Project to Google App Engine dialog, enter your Google Account email and password.

Note: Don't worry - the plugin doesn't store your password anywhere.

Click Deploy.

Go to http://application-id.appspot.com/ to see your application.
 
 

The Plug-in does seem to be keeping my last used Login-ID and Password for deployment.

I can exit Eclipse and restart but I am still logged in for deployment.

I found the problem. After update the Eclipse Plugin forget my account
data. In Eclipse und the bottom statusbar on the left border.. there
is the account you've signed in. So I just clicked, updates my account
data and could update my apps.

Thanks for help guys!

Thanks Robert Kluin,


I was able to resolve this issue by deleting the .appcfg_oauth2_tokens_java file. This is probably the java equivalent of the file you mentioned.
