gae | General Advertising Engine - General DSP advertising engine

I deployed a Python project on Google App Engine. As the project has a dependency on Java, I used a Docker container configuring two environments: Python + Java.

However, when I make a call to my Python service in GAE it's getting "java command is not found from this Python process. Please ensure Java is installed and PATH is set for java" error.

During the build process of the Docker file I am able to access Java after installing it. But during API execution it is not recognized by Python.

The "app.yaml" file used:

I am trying to deploy my project using Google App engine using Github actions. I created main.yaml file and added a job to create .env file during deployment. But it is showing the built successful but the .env is not added to the code. I am using actions Create .env file.

This is my main.yaml file-

If part of my app.yaml file looks like this:

In my first attempt at using Cloud to deploy an app...

The problem: GCP (Google Cloud Platform) unexpected instance hour usage (Frontend Instance Hours). High traffic was not the issue but for some reason a bunch of "instances" and "versions" were created by their autoscaling feature.

Solution they suggested: Disable autoscaling and stop serving previously deployed versions of your instance. I still need one version/instance running but through their console I still have not found where it shows how many versions/instances I have running or where to stop them (also verifying that at least 1 instance is still working in order to not break my app)

My app is simple app that was developed by Google developers and recommended by them for dynamic rendering a JS SPA (allows search engines and crawlers to see fully rendered html).
My actual website together with a node app to point to GCP for crawlers is hosted else where (on Godaddy) and both are working together nicely.

The app I deployed to GCP is called Rendertron (https://github.com/GoogleChrome/rendertron)

Google also recommends deploying to GCP (most documentation covers that form of deployment). I attempted deploying to my Godaddy shared hosting and it was not straight forward and easy to make work so I simply attempted creating a GCP project and tried deploying there. All worked great!

After deploying the app to GCP that has almost no traffic yet, I expected zero costs or at most something under a dollar.

Unfortunately, I received a bill for more than $150 for the month with approx the same projected for the next month.

Without paying an addition $150 for tech support, I was able to contact GCP billing over the phone and they are great in that they are willing to reimburse the charges but only after I resolve the problem myself.

They are generous with throwing a group of document links at you (common causes of unexpected instance hour usage) but can't help further than that.

After many google searches, reading through documentation, paying for and watching gcloud tutorials through pluralsight.com, the direction I have understood or not understood so far is as follows:

• almost all documentation, videos and tutorials talk about managing or turning off autoscaling using Compute Engine Instance Groups
• It is not clear that instance groups is not another hole I will fall into that is a paid service and I will be charged more than necessary
• Instance groups seems like overkill for a simple app that wants only one instance running at minimal cost
• there is not enough or difficult to find documentation for how to run a very small scale app at minimal cost using minimal resources
• I have not read or watched anything yet of how to simply use the config .yaml file (initially deployed) to make sure the app does not autoscale and also if I find that it seems like I still need to delete versions or instances that have already been started and it is not clear in how to do that as well.
• Instances and Versions are not clear on google console of how many are running, I still have not found on google console where there are multiple instances/versions running.

I can use a direction to continue my attempt of investigating how to resolve the issue.

1. The direction of me needing to create a Group Instance (so I can manage the no autoscaling from there) is the way to go and where I should focus my attempts?

2. The direction of continuing learning how to simply update my config in the .yaml file to create no scaling, for example something like setting both min_instances and max_instances to 1 together with learning how to manually stop (directly from GCP console) more than 1 instance/version that are currently running is where I should focus on?

3. A third option?

As a side note, autoscaling with GCP does not seem very intelligent.
Why would my app that has almost no traffic run into an issue that multiple instances were created?

Any insight will be greatly appreciated.

**** Update **** platform info

My app is deployed to Google App Engine (GAE) (deployed code, not a container)

Steps taken for Deploy:

Hi I am trying to deploy django app on Google app engine. My Django app works fine in the locally but in google app engine it is not working. I checked and found that issue is with my static files. My static files are not getting loaded in app engine.

Authenticated calls between Google App Engine services

Is there a way to make Google App Engine services only callable within the App engine?

For example, I create service-a and service-b in my GAE. By, default, service-a and service-b are public, so I can send requests to them without authentication. I would like to make them unreachable from the public, but service-a and service-b can still communicate with each other.

Appreciate it if someone could help me with this. Thanks.

Task
Given a string, of given length that is indexed from to , print its even-indexed and odd-indexed characters as space-separated strings on a single line. As you can see it works fine for grace but does not handle thomasshelby the same way. Can you tell me, what is the problem with this code?

When I try to deploy my newly created Firebase PubSub function, I get the error Error: Failed to create scheduler job projects/workouts-uat/locations/europe-west1/jobs/firebase-schedule-dailyTasks-eur3: HTTP Error: 400, Schedule or time zone is invalid.

My function is declared as follows:

I have created nextjs project with Isomorphic admin theme

Now I am going to deploy this project to google app engine. I read this discussion and structured my app based on this repo

This is my app.yaml
