I get nothing out of appcfg.py besides the default output. I'm trying to upload some data to my development project with no luck at at all.

From the instructions on the Google App Engine page the steps are as follows:

  1. Edit app.yaml
  2. update with appcfg.py
  3. make upload script
  4. upload with appcfg.py

After step one I try to run the update and it never shows any success. The following commands product the same output:

appcfg.py
appcfg.py update appDir
appcfg.py update appDir/
appcfg.py update /appDir

If i try to follow the instructions from the appcfg.py output and type help upload and get:

"help <action>" I get a response from the system, This command is not supported by the help utility.  Try "update /?".

cause I'm calling the system help command. If I use the command appcfg.py help upload I get the same result as just typing appcfg.py

Can someone show me examples of the syntax to update the dev site, upload data to it and get appcfg.py to actually give help on its commands?

Also I'm just assuming that the upload script and the .csv file that are being uploaded are in they myApp directory.

Appreciate any help,
