Simple static webpage deployment on app engine standard throwing errors suddenly-CodePudding

I've been hosting my static site via an google app engine standard python setup for years without a problem. Today I started seeing the error below. Note: there used to be a page on GCP explaining how to host a static page using python GAE standard, but I can't find it now. Is it maybe the case where now it's recommended to use a bucket instead?

Here's my app.yaml file:

runtime: python38
service: webapp

handlers:

# site root -> app
- url: /
  static_files: dist/index.html
  upload: dist/index.html
  expiration: "0m"
  secure: always

# urls with no dot in them -> app
- url: /([^.] ?)\/?$  # urls
  static_files: dist/index.html
  upload: dist/index.html

  secure: always

# everything else
- url: /(.*)
  static_files: dist/\1

CodePudding user response：

Note that you are using Python 3.8 as per your app.yaml file, and the document you have shared is for Python 2.7. As Python 2 is no longer supported, migrating from Python 2 to Python 3 runtime will help you remove the error.

The documentation here will help you to migrate to Python 3 standard runtime.

This error only happened on Nov 17th and has since not happened again, without any changes by me. Perhaps it was related to something under-the-hood on google app engine servers.
