Wanting to add a service to my default app.

This is my config

# app.yaml
runtime: python311
service: myservice
entrypoint: gunicorn -b :$PORT app:app
env_variables:
  color: "green"
  vehicle: "bike"

I did run using the cli

gcloud app deploy --verbosity=debug --log-http

I could not figure out the meaning of the debug message, perhaps someone here has a better view on this issue.

Within the same project I have succesfully uploaded another server using one of the samples.

appengine/standard/flask/hello_world with a small adjustment to the app.yaml file. So that the default service would not be replaced, I have added a service: myservicetest entry.

runtime: python27
service: myservicetest
api_version: 1
threadsafe: true

handlers:
- url: /.*
  script: main.app

libraries:
- name: flask
  version: 0.12

Now I know it has probably nothing to do with my rights or version of the cli SDK.

Since your service has an entrypoint - gunicorn -b :$PORT app:app.

a) Do you have a file named app.py which exposes the app object for Flask?

b) Do you have 'gunicorn’ in your requirements.txt file? Because you specified gunicorn in your entrypoint, you need to explicitly include ‘gunicorn’ in your requirements.txt file

I have verified both points.
The solution for me was to remove the version numbers from the requirements.txt, On the app Engine platform I had chosen an newer Python version so there was probably a conflict with some requirements not being suitable for python 3.11.

Thanks for the help.

This isn’t a general solution, but just the solution in your specific case. I’m using the Flex environment (ie, a custom Docker image), and my image works just fine locally, but it fails with this same error:

  "error": {
    "code": 13,
    "message": "An internal error occurred."
  }

So far, I’ve found nothing in Logs Explorer, but I’ve got so many logs, who knows what it would take to isolate the error, if it’s being logged.
