I'm new to GAE, and just completed the GAE online PHP helloworld tutorial, but now I have a problem with the quickstart tutorial for local development: https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/php/quickstart#prerequisites
My problem is that I cannot start the local development server from Windows 8.1 command prompt. I've tried typing both "dev_appserver.py <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/php/quickstart#test_the_application>" and "dev_appserver.py <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/php/quickstart#test_the_application> ." as indicated in the tutorial, but each time I try, I get a prompt from Windows asking "how do you want to get this type of file (.py)?" Other than the prompt, there is no error message after I press enter. Afterwards, I cannot access http://localhost:8080/ , so it appears the server is not running or not loading the "helloworld" project correctly. I've also tried using the Google Cloud SDK Shell instead of the command prompt, with the same result. I did install the Cloud SDK (including the Python bundle) and also added the SDK program path to my PATH variable. What am I doing wrong? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
