can't Access Google APP Engine SDK

Question

It prompts me:

The Google App Engine SDK could not be found!
Make sure it's accessible via your PATH environment and called google_appengine

when I run

python manage.py runserver 

But It worked for my first time i run it. I put it on my PATH directory, but it still prompts for that message. My os is Ubuntu 10.04, python version 2.6. that files/directories on my django project directory.

app.yaml   django           google_appengine  main.py      settings.pyc
autoload   djangoappengine  __init__.py       manage.py    urls.py
dbindexer  djangotoolbox    __init__.pyc      settings.py  urls.pyc

I don't know how to debug my problem.

Answer 1

For me, I ran into this after updating GoogleAppEngineLauncher, but I had not yet run the application. I ran GoogleAppEngineLauncher and it unpacked files and created the necessary symlinks.

Answer 2

Simply put your sdk to Environment Path

export PATH=$PATH:/home/computer_name/Desktop/google_appengine/

Hope it helps,

Answer 3

I fixed the problem, just move the google_appengine to /usr/local direcitory, i used to move to /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-package, after checking sys.path, I found it not in it.

Answer 4

On Windows, Google changed the path of the app engine SDK folder and django-nonrel can no longer find it. You need to edit the file djangoappengine\boot.py so that it can now find it. On line 50 add the following lines underneath if os.name in ('nt', 'dos'):

   paths.append(r'%(PROGRAMFILES(X86))s\Google\Cloud SDK'
                r'\google-cloud-sdk\lib\googlecloudsdk\third_party\appengine' %
                os.environ)
