Question

I’m running a Google App locally.

I have a folder with static images I want to pull. Folder is called “images” (it’s in the root)

In my app.yaml I have this code:

- url: /images
  static_files: images
  upload: images

But when the app is running and trying to grab an image I get 404:

localhost:8080/images/truck.png

What am I doing wrong?
Thank you.

Try Using this:

application: test
version: 1
runtime: python27
api_version: 1
threadsafe: false

handlers:
- url: /resources
  static_dir: resources

- url: /.*
  script: main.app

libraries:
- name: jinja2
  version: latest

Ensure that the resources url is before the /.* url.

I have my project set up as follows

/test
/test/resources
/test/resources/images
/test/resources/images/myimage.png
app.yaml
main.py
