GAE error using appcfg after a failure

Question

D:\kubox\python\GAE>appcfg.py rollback D:\kubox\python\GAE\myapp1
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "D:\kubox\python\GAE\appcfg.py", line 77, in <module>
    DIR_PATH = get_dir_path(os.path.join('lib', 'ipaddr'))
  File "D:\kubox\python\GAE\appcfg.py", line 67, in get_dir_path
    'file and %s.' % sibling)
ValueError: Could not determine directory that contains both, this file and lib\
ipaddr.

After a failure deployment, I can't perform the appcfg.py, did I make a wrong syntax? where did I do wrong? WIN 7, cmd prompt

Answer 1

Try running appcfg.py from where your GAE SDK is installed.

Answer 2

Usually rollback should suffice, but after a failure in deployment, sometimes the upload doesn't work by default.

As a work around, you can change the app version (app.yaml), and then try deployment, It should go fine.

Next you can log in to your applications dashboard and in versions tab, you can switch the latest version as default one. Your new version should be up and running now. As a last step you can stop any instances of old version of your app.

Hope this helps
