Can anyone clarify the situation here?
I've used the Bulkloader with Python25 and old/master slave databases.
I've also used it (for uploading data only) with Python25 and the high replication datastore, despite what it says here:
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/uploadingdata.html
This document applies to apps that use the master/slave datastore. If your app uses the High Replication datastore, it is possible to copy data from the app, but Google does not currently support this use case.
However, I'm now trying the Bulkloader with the high replication datastore and Python27 and it appears to be irretrievably broken. It actually seems to bypass the authentication step, even though I am passing my email correctly to appcfg.py
Has anyone else tried this? Can anyone confirm which components Bulkloader will/won't work with?
