error in delivering static content in google app engine

Question

I have the following app.yaml configuration file:

- url: /privacy.html 
  static_files: html/privacy.html
  upload: static_files
  
- url: /terms.html 
  static_files: html/terms.html
  upload: static_files

While hitting www.samplewebsite.com/privacy.html from the web browser, it complains the following:

Error: Not Found

The requested URL /privacy.html was not found on this server.

Everything works fine in local dev server.

Answer 1

So as Sebastian Kreft pointed out your "upload:" clause is wrong. Read his comment to figure out what it should be.
