When I follow the tutorial – App Engine Series #4 – I got this error for Ajax.py:

ImportError: No module named django.utils

1	ImportError: No module named django.utils

According to this article, Python 2.7 uses native JSON library. Fixed source for Ajax.py is this:

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

# Including the models:
from models.models import *

# from Phyton 2.7, use native JSON library

    def get(self):

        # This class selects the response times
        # for the last 24 hours.

        # function is already cached in memcache:
        jsonStr = memcache.get("TwentyFourHoursCache")

        if jsonStr is None:

When I follow the tutorial – App Engine Series #4 – I kept getting the error like below:

ImportError: No module named controllers

1	ImportError: No module named controllers

It is caused by below code:

import webapp2

# Importing the controllers that will handle
# the generation of the pages:
from controllers import crons,ajax,generate,mainh

import webapp2

# Importing the controllers that will handle

# the generation of the pages:

from controllers import crons,ajax,generate,mainh

To fix the error, it is very simple. Just create empty ‘__init__.py’ file in ‘controllers’ folder without content. You will need to create on ‘config’, ‘models’ folders as well. Once […]

assert type(data) is StringType,"write() argument must be string"

AssertionError: write() argument must be string

To fix this error, I have found this article. According to answer, it is unicode problem. So fixed version of code is below:

#!/usr/bin/env python

import os
import wsgiref.handlers
from google.appengine.ext import webapp
from google.appengine.ext.webapp import template

class MyHandler(webapp.RequestHandler):
    def get(self):
        self.response.out.write(unicode(template.render('main.html', {})))

def main():
    app = webapp.WSGIApplication([
            (r'.*', MyHandler)], debug= True)
    wsgiref.handlers.CGIHandler().run(app);

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

#!/usr/bin/env python

import os

import wsgiref.handlers

from google.appengine.ext import webapp

from google.appengine.ext.webapp import template

class MyHandler(webapp.RequestHandler):

def get(self):

self.response.out.write(unicode(template.render('main.html', {})))

def main():

app = webapp.WSGIApplication([

(r'.*', MyHandler)], debug= True)

wsgiref.handlers.CGIHandler().run(app);

if __name__ == "__main__":

main()
