Hi, If you are having problems mapping the 'www' subdomain to your application, most of the time this is because another Google Apps service already holds the www mapping. See what service is currently serving at this subdomain, and then go in to your cPanel for apps to delete that mapping before adding the mapping to Google App Engine.
In some cases a service might hold on to the mapping even after this service has been disabled (we've noticed this for sites). In this case you'll need to re-enable the service to delete the mapping. It may even be the case that you will need to re-add the mapping before deleting it. I wrote up a quick page on the group detailing how this can be done if the 'www' mapping is currently owned by sites: http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine/web/deleting-existing-www-mapping-from-google-apps Hopefully this will help, I know it's not the most intuitive process. -Marzia On Thu, Oct 30, 2008 at 6:21 AM, Jonathan B <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Oleg, > > I don't know if this is a good answer, but here goes: > > I'm pretty sure that you can't use an A record with Google App Engine > (GAE).
