Google App Engine SDK and VMWare Setup

  1. VMWare network: bridged
  2. OSX firewall: make sure to allow incoming connections to Python
  3. Start dev_appserver.py manually (not with the GUI)

# Start dev_appserver.py
sudo /usr/local/bin/dev_appserver.py -a 192.168.0.50 -p 80 [Path to App]

# example:
# sudo /usr/local/bin/dev_appserver.py -a 192.168.0.50 -p 80 app/

Python (192.168.0.50) and VMWare can now connect to each other. Hooray for debugging!
