Q:

Bulk uploading data in Google App Engine - problem

I am trying to upload some data to GAE using the bulk uploader outlined;
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/uploadingdata.html
When I run the command;
appcfg.py create_bulkloader_config --filename=bulkloader.yaml

I get: 
appcfg.py: error: Expected either --url or a single <directory> argument.

From looking around, a few other people have had the same problem but the suggestions given to fix the issue do not seem to work.
Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you.

A:

You must specify the application folder. If you are in it, just run:
appcfg.py create_bulkloader_config --filename=bulkloader.yaml .

otherwise run:
appcfg.py create_bulkloader_config --filename=bulkloader.yaml
path/to/root/gae/app/
