Error deploying java google app engine flexible application - Timed out waiting for the app infrastructure to become healthy

Question

Writing this issue as I have no idea how to investigate it.

We're having problems in deploying an app engine flexible application. The problem is, that the only error we get is the following:

GCLOUD: ERROR: (gcloud.app.deploy) Error Response: [4] Timed out waiting for the app infrastructure to become healthy.

I tried already the following:

Try a simple helloWorld app, to make sure it's not an application issue
Check quota settings -> All green
Check activity stream for warnings or errors
Check logs for warngings or errors
Grant owner role to service account which is deploying the app

App.yaml:

service: test-service # Id of the service
env: flex       # Flex environment
runtime: java   # Java runtime
runtime_config:
  jdk: openjdk8 # use OpenJDK 8
resources:
  cpu: 1
  memory_gb: 2.8

gcloud version

After contacting the google technical support, we found out, that the default app engine service account didn't have the Editor role. After assigning the editor role the deployment worked again.
