Answer 1

That happened to me as well when I provided a username that wasn't an owner/developer, and even specifying a different account with -e or --email didn't work. What fixed was this:

appcfg.py update . --no_cookies

(same as: https://stackoverflow.com/a/10004722)

Answer 2

You have to login under developer or owner to deploy application. This is bottom left icon in eclipse.

Also check your application name. If id of application correct and user you login has role owner/developer for this application - you will deploy.

Answer 3

You have to make sure that application name in your GAE local client matches the one in your Google account. Check the app.yaml file to make sure that the name of application matches there as well.

Answer 4

That also happend to me when I change the email to create new appid for goagent.

My solution is delete cookie file in the server directory:

rm server/.appcfg_cookies

then, everything is ok!

Answer 5

Deleted .appcfg_oauth2_tokens c:/usrs/etc worked for me after a long overdue upgrade to python27.

Answer 6

At least as of 2017-06-22, it's not enough to create a cloud project. You have to go to the App Engine section of cloud console and choose a language. When it's done saying "Preparing your App Engine services..." then you can deploy.

Answer 7

the problem was different name which i changed from rightClick project ->appenginesettings->ApplicationId .

this name should be same in your google account

Answer 8

Removing the oauth2 token file ~/.appcfg_oauth2_tokens or specifying a different token store file file with the flag "--oauth2_credential_file" might be a permanent solution. MacOSX GoogleAppEngineLauncher.app does not let you change this flag/path when you push the deploy button.

appcfg.py --oauth2_credential_file=~/.appcfg_oauth2_tokens_myappid

Answer 9

I had same error message:

This application does not exist (project_id=u'xxxx-123456'). To create an App Engine application in this project, run "gcloud app create" in your console.

I solved it by executing below command:

gcloud app create

It will create app inside your project and assign selected region.
