I'm running the following command to deploy my Managed VMs app (on Windows 10):

gcloud preview app deploy app.yaml --project=<PROJECT> --promote

The deployment starts bug hangs on the following line:

Copying certificates for secure access. You may be prompted to create an SSH keypair.

And after some time I get the error:

ERROR: (gcloud.preview.app.deploy) Unable to copy certificates.

I've already:

  • Made sure that there are SSH keys in ~\.ssh\google_compute_engine
  • Tried to run with --quiet - same results
  • Renamed ssh-term.exe to ssh.exe - same results
  • Run the command as an administrator.
  • Run the command with --verbosity debug, which prints the following line multiple times: DEBUG: File [f] does not exist locally.

Any help will be much appreciated!

Found the cause! It was the project's firewall that blocked SSH by default. Fixed that and it worked.

Glad you fixed it, I had the same problem and will use your fix. I did happen accros a work around. By using the Container Build API to perform the build.

enter the command 

gcloud config set app/use_cloud_build true

Before you 

gcloud preview app deploy

  • And for others that stumble on this - we use cloud build by default now. No more creating VMs in your project to do the build :) – Justin Beckwith Apr 06 '16 at 02:21
