Hi Everyone

I'm trying to get Google Appengine up and running on Ubuntu 8.10. I've
downloaded the .zip for the Appengine SDK from the Linux/Other
Platforms section on
http://code.google.com/appengine/downloads.html#Download_the_Google_App_Engine_SDK

Upon unzipping the file, I'm told that 3 CRCs didn't match, I deleted
all the files and tried re-downloading & unzipping 3 times, still got
the same CRC mismatches again. So I decided to just give it a shot
anyway.

Then I tried out the "Helloworld" app, creating a directory
"helloworld" in the "google_appengine" directory and placing my
"helloworld.py" and "app.yaml" files in the "helloworld" directory. I
tried running dev_appserver.py by opening my terminal and typing
google_appengine/dev_appserver.py /helloworld, and got a nice little
error message as illustrated below:

ch...@chris-laptop:~$ google_appengine/dev_appserver.py /helloworld
ERROR:root:Application configuration file not found in /helloworld

Now, I'm not sure what's causing this, whether I have a bum copy of
the SDK (unlikely, I think, since the files came directly from the
Google Appengine Downloads), or whether I'm not putting my files or
directories in the right places, or whether there are other
dependencies I need to run dev_appserver.py (Ubuntu comes with Python
2.5.2 pre-installed, I have not installed 2.6 or 3.0 as I am aware
they are not compatible with AppEngine).

I'm kind of stuck right now, I've searched online for a few hours with
no luck and I think I should be able to get this up and running pretty
easily. If anyone has any suggestions or has experienced something
like this, please let me know as soon as you can

Thanks
