Re: [google-appengine] GAE Static files not working locally on windows

2014-01-04 Thread Google Tasks Backup Moderator 
On my Windows system running GAE Python, I found that any absolute URLs
were mapped to the equivalent absolute folder on my hard drive. For example
  href=/static/favicon.ico
is mapped to
  c:\static\favicon.ico

I worked around this by creating a symbolic link, by issuing the following
command from an administrator command prompt
  mklink /d \static C:\path\to\my\gae\project\static


Another alternative is to ensure that your application only ever uses
relative URLs.

Hope this helps

 Hi All,

 I am writing my first app for GAE and golang. I am trying to serve static
 files using app.yaml. but having no luck. It returns 404. I am running GAE
 SDK Locally on windows 7 x64.

 Here is my app.yaml. I am trying to serve static files out of my
 /static/images folder under my app folder

 application: myApp
 version: 1
 runtime: go
 api_version: go1

 handlers:
 - url: /images
   static_dir: static/images

 - url: /.*
   script: _go_app

What error is the dev server reporting? You noted that the browser is
reporting a 404 error, but the dev server should also be recording an error
(it'll say something similar to *Errno #, [reason-explanation]*).
