[google-appengine] Windows Launcher for Google App Engine source code

2013-08-08 Thread Gary Mort
Where is the source code for the Windows Launcher stored? I downloaded the latest PHP SDK and it includes the window launcher, but it would not work for PHP. I wanted to use the PHP runtime already installed by XAMPP and while it works fine from the command line - the windows launcher doesn't

[google-appengine] Mixing PHP and Python in a single App Engine App[seperate instances]

2013-12-04 Thread Gary Mort
I was wondering if there is any problem with mixing python and PHP in a single app engine app. Specifically, my deployment code would include both Python and PHP, using the Python code to do some XMPP integration. So I'd have 2 "versions" of the app: Joomla_Website XMPP_Comm With 2 different

[google-appengine] Best Practices for PHP

2013-12-05 Thread Gary Mort
I was wondering if there are any best practice web sites on using PHP on Google App Engine. While working through installing the Joomla! CMS on GAE I've run into some weird oddities and initially have taken a rather brute force approach to work through them. Being unhappy with the brute force

[google-appengine] Cloud SQL bugs?

2013-12-07 Thread Gary Mort
When using the Cloud Admin to set the root userid, this password is only set for root@% not root@localhost [and presumably not root@127.0.0.1] When connecting remotely by ip address, you can use the root password since the % matches. When connecting from a deployed Google App Instance, the ro

[google-appengine] Google Cloud Storage: local SDK failures in PHP

2013-12-19 Thread Gary Mort
The local SDK's implementation of Cloud Storage seems faulty. With the local SDK, the key for the filename does not match the hash used to test it. For example: Trying to create a text file to cache some data. My app will create 3 files: 65f1b09f8d57d15f0ec5f76d57ee034a-cache-_system-4035f745

[google-appengine] Using Google Cloud Storage for caching and sessions under PHP

2013-12-20 Thread Gary Mort
While working on getting the Joomla CMS functioning on GAE, I've been learning a few things. One item I did was setting up a GAE specific memcached driver for caching and session handling. However, after doing so and digging a bit deeper, I realized that there are 2 different memcached impleme

[google-appengine] Cloud SQL quadruple billing on idling IP address?

I realise that considering the cost, this is a very minor nit - but the billing for idling IP addresses seems...odd. For my test google app, overnumerousness-site I was seeing some very odd usage charts. My Cloud SQL instance seemed to be constantly running, despite there not being any traffic

While working on getting Joomla to work without core file hacks on App Engine, I ran into some trouble where it attempts to build paths based on the path the index.php file is in. Specifically, it tries to send media files[images] to JPATH_BASE.'/media', cache files to JPATH_BASE.'/cache', and

[google-appengine] Configure static file handler/path via app.yaml or dynamically?

2014-01-07 Thread Gary Mort
With the local SDK, static files have a special handler which can serve their data without requiring the instance to be executing. It strikes me that it would be useful to allow for a redirect handler as well. This would help for static files where you want to store the files in a Google Stora
