Background We have a google app engine app serving a custom domain (https). The setup has been working for over 2 years now (initially it was http and we shifted to https around 6 months ago). Past one month we are facing intermittent issues of pages timing out/long delays (over 20-30 seconds to load instead of usual 1-2 seconds). When we access our app directly via the appspot url, it works consistently.
Debugging the issue we realized the following: When I ping our appspot link (https://appid.appspot.com), the IP address is *74.125.130.141* and it ping consistently - When I ping our custom URL (https://www.appdomain.com), the IP address is *74.125.200.121*and ping fails intermittently - When ever the IP address is pingable, our app works fine. When ever the app is timing out, the ping also fails. - The failing IP address seems to be one of the IPs in google IP address range - see output of https://ipdb.at/ip/74.125.200.121 - The CNAME record for my domain for the host "www" points to ghs.googlehosted.com Questions - Has anything changed within google app engine IP mapping in the recent months? - Is there a way I can force my custom domain to reach a "stable" IP address within the google app engine farm? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
