@mrkkrj: I was getting some errors that I didn’t have time to figure out, so I disabled storing of new visits.

Hi Thomas,

http://mashname.appspot.com/ says: (Storing new visits temporarily disabled due to App Engine timeout errors). Isn’t it working anymore?

@Catalin: I’m not sure what is happening, but from what I can see there are some missing dependencies. The webob module is missing and it looks like urllib2 doesn’t have SSL support. Have a look at this page: http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=19

I haven’t tested the code on the latest App Engine releases, so for all I know it might be using deprecated features.

Hello .
I have a problem with settings of /google_appengine:
I unzip the /google_appengine on your folder example:
mashname]$ ls
app.yaml index.yaml main.py mashname settings.py urls.py
google_appengine __init__.py manage.py models.py settings.pyc views.py
But i don’t know how to make working with django.
Django working fine on my computer, but on /google_appengine
python test.py say :
google_appengine]$ python test.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “test.py”, line 1, in
from google.appengine.ext import webapp
File “/home/tutor/mashname/google_appengine/google/appengine/ext/webapp/__init__.py”, line 68, in
import webob
ImportError: No module named webob
And
google_appengine]$ ./appcfg.py update mashname
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “./appcfg.py”, line 68, in
run_file(__file__, globals())
File “./appcfg.py”, line 64, in run_file
execfile(script_path, globals_)
File “/home/tutor/mashname/google_appengine/google/appengine/tools/appcfg.py”, line 59, in
from google.appengine.tools import appengine_rpc
File “/home/tutor/mashname/google_appengine/google/appengine/tools/appengine_rpc.py”, line 32, in
https_handler = urllib2.HTTPSHandler
AttributeError: ‘module’ object has no attribute ‘HTTPSHandler’
What is wrong ? What is correct way to set appengine to working with django?
Thank you !
