Hi Stephen, My last post contained a mistake, flush actually causes the tasks to be removed but they are not run. To actually run the tasks, click on the queue name then click the run button on the next page.
Thanks for the feedback about documentation on the dev server's admin console. It is mentioned here but it is quite brief: http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/devserver.html#The_Development_Console Thank you, Jeff On Mon, Jun 22, 2009 at 6:08 PM, Stephen Mayer <stephen.ma...@gmail.com>wrote: > > Hey Jeff, > > Thanks much for the reply.
