[google-appengine] Re: "This application ID or version is already in use" Error

2009-02-02 Thread Marzia Niccolai

Hi,

I don't know of any problems with the app id verifier.  App Engine
checks app ids against the Gmail namespace, so any app id that is
already taken as a Gmail address will only be available to the owner
of that address.

The net result is that many desired app ids are not available.

I have heard of this problem.  One workaround that has apparently
worked in the past is:

1. Log out of Google app engine.
2. Close browser (all windows - make sure you have quit the browser
app).
3. Reopen browser.
4. Try again.

Boson, your workaround seemed to solve my problem. Thanks!

Is there a way to report this to the Google team?
