Turned out that the problem was ridiculously simple. In app.yaml, the env_variables were missing the quotes... Looks like PHP was parsing the DSN as a folder or file, because of the '\' So this: env: flex runtime: php runtime_config: document_root: . env_variables: # Replace USER, PASSWORD, DATABASE, and CONNECTION_NAME with the # values obtained when configuring your Cloud SQL instance. MYSQL_USER: user MYSQL_PASSWORD: password MYSQL_DSN: mysql:dbname=db_scope;unix_socket=/cloudsql/xxxx # Use the connection name obtained when configuring your Cloud SQL instance. beta_settings: cloud_sql_instances: xxxxx Changed to this: env: flex runtime: php runtime_config: document_root: . env_variables: # Replace USER, PASSWORD, DATABASE, and CONNECTION_NAME with the # values obtained when configuring your Cloud SQL instance. MYSQL_USER: 'user' MYSQL_PASSWORD: 'password' MYSQL_DSN: 'mysql:dbname=DBNAME;unix_socket=/cloudsql/xxxxxx' # Use the connection name obtained when configuring your Cloud SQL instance. beta_settings: cloud_sql_instances: 'xxxxxxx' -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
