I've set up I18n for my Python3 Django4.0 app and it runs locally without problems. When I deploy it to GAE standard the translated text isn't shown. The active language changes, but the text does not change.

The catalog files exist, but it looks like they are not being loaded.

I am aware that GAE-standard only allows access to tmp/ directory. Could this be the reason? Are there particular cache requirements?

Any advice or examples would be super useful.

The problem was caused by an auto-generated .gcloudignore file including .mo files.

If the .mo file (created by running makemessages) doesnt exist, django wont raise any errors.
