java - Appengine - Deployment of hidden folder -

to verify ssl certificate, need upload hidden folder ("/.well-known" containing files application.

i deploying java application eclipse, these files not receive @ application on appengine. guess filtered out.

i tried add hidden folder static file appengine-web.xml, did not help.

<!-- configure serving/caching of gwt files --> <static-files>     <include path="**" />     <include path=".**" />     <include path="**.*" expiration="0s" />     <include path="**.well-known" expiration="0s" />     <include path="**.nocache.*" expiration="0s" />     <include path="**.cache.*" expiration="365d" />     <include path="**.css" expiration="30d"/>     <exclude path="**.gwt.rpc" />     <exclude path="**.html" /> </static-files> 

any ideas how upload these folder , files?

for else coming here me after trying serve challenge letsencrypt in static manner in google app engine , failing, following did me: (one might able statically, didn't try didn't want spend more time trying out stuff , ian apparently tried , not make work [maybe copy command done internally on google app engine ignores directories start dot] )

just build servlet like:

public class letsencryptservlet extends httpservlet {

    public static final map<string, string> challenges = new hashmap<string, string>();      static {         challenges.put("rzrvz9gd7eh3i_tsjm-b0vdemsld4oo_lwsaggskp6c",                 "rzrvz9gd7eh3i_tsjm-b0vdemsld4oo_lwsaggskp6c.onrza3uelibswex270ntuirzkpfxw096nenwbmgw0-e");     }      @override     protected void doget(httpservletrequest req, httpservletresponse resp)             throws servletexception, ioexception {         if (!req.getrequesturi().startswith("/.well-known/acme-challenge/")) {             resp.senderror(404);             return;         }         string id = req.getrequesturi().substring("/.well-known/acme-challenge/".length());         if (!challenges.containskey(id)) {             resp.senderror(404);             return;         }         resp.setcontenttype("text/plain");         resp.getoutputstream().print(challenges.get(id));     } } 

and add web.xml somethine like:

<servlet>     <servlet-name>letsencrypt</servlet-name>     <servlet-class>...letsencryptservlet</servlet-class> </servlet> <servlet-mapping>     <servlet-name>letsencrypt</servlet-name>     <url-pattern>/.well-known/acme-challenge/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> 

of course, sure servlet class has full classpath created servlet.

that blog post deals other steps necessary generate , install certificate.

ian: sure deploying servlet well? check logs, make sure testing right version.. maybe had compilation issue..
