Google Cloud SDK - No module named ipaddr

Question

Today our development containers started throwing and error while running the App Engine (GAE) Standard local development environment from the Google Cloud SDK.

ERROR    2017-12-15 09:38:37,766 http_runtime.py:396] bad runtime process port ['']
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/google-cloud-sdk/platform/google_appengine/_php_runtime.py", line 103, in <module>
    _run_file(__file__, globals())
  File "/opt/google-cloud-sdk/platform/google_appengine/_php_runtime.py", line 97, in _run_file
    execfile(_PATHS.script_file(script_name), globals_)

  File "/opt/google-cloud-sdk/platform/google_appengine/google/appengine/tools/devappserver2/wsgi_server.py", line 34, in <module>
    import ipaddr
ImportError: No module named ipaddr

It looks like it was caused by an upgrade to the latest SDK which happened automatically.

Still occurring with GoogleAppEngine-1.9.67 released Monday, 12 February 2018 — Carl, Feb 23 '18 at 11:27

Temporal solution for macOS, copy the ipaddr.py file to <google-cloud-sdk>/platform/google_appengine

Fixed it for me. Note that if you still use the old launcher this isn't in ~/google-cloud-sdk but in /Applications/GoogleAppEngineLauncher.app/Contents/Resources/GoogleAppEngine-default.bundle/Contents/Resources/google_appengine – blackjack75 Jan 05 '18 at 01:47

On Ubuntu 14.04, which we are using to match the GAE PHP version of 5.5, the python module they are trying to use isn't installed by default.

We installed it with:

# apt install python-ipaddr

This looks to be because of a feature they have introduced to do with host checking, to prevent DNS rebinding attacks.

Installing that library solved the issue experienced on Windows 10 for GAE PHP 5.5 – developerscott Dec 18 '17 at 19:46

In Windows 10, I copied the file ipaddr.py from https://github.com/google/ipaddr-py into the Google\Cloud SDK\google-cloud-sdk\platform\bundledpython\Lib\ folder and it worked.

Not an experienced Python coder, so I'm not sure if it's the best place to put the missing ipaddr.py file, but it works.

For what it's worth, this didn't work under my Win 10. I had to install 'ipaddr.py' under the '\Python\Lib\' folder instead. – fwiw Jan 13 '18 at 23:05

This happened after GoogleAppEngine-1.9.65 upgrade in my Windows 7 and it seems C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\google_appengine\lib\ipaddr\ipaddr folder is missing ipaddr.py file.

I had to download ipaddr-2.2.0.tar.gz then unzip it and run following command to install it.

python setup.py install

Hope this helps.
