I am trying to run a test GAE backend on my localhost and I am getting the following error:
com.google.appengine.tools.development.InstanceHelper sendStartRequest
WARNING: Start request to /_ah/start on server 0.export failed (HTTP status code=405). Retrying...
My code is as follows:
backends.xml
<backends>
<backend name="example">
<class>B1</class>
<options>
<instances>1</instances>
<public>false</public>
<dynamic>true</dynamic>
