Hi Frank, The VM runtime doesn't automatically load appengine_config like the non-VM runtime. Here's two things you can do to use third-party packages:
- Import appengine_config at the top of main.py - Take advantage of the Docker container and install everything via pip in your Dockerfile. See this sample dockerfile <https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/appengine-vm-fortunespeak-python/blob/master/Dockerfile> . I highly recommend the docker approach.
