It's possible to get into a situation where you're getting the error you mentioned, but can't change the yaml file as mentioned in LundinCast's answer because you're also getting this error when you try to deploy:

INVALID_ARGUMENT: Your app may not have more than 15 versions. Please delete one of the existing versions before trying to create a new version.

In that situation, I wasn't able to find a solution from the terminal, but it's easy enough to go to the "versions" page of the console to manually delete a version, which is available here:

https://console.cloud.google.com/appengine/versions

As documented here:

This command stops serving the specified versions. It may only be used if the scaling module for your service has been set to manual.

The scaling pattern for your app is defined in the app.yaml file (or appengine-web.xml file in Java), for example:

manual_scaling:
  instances: 5

Note that if you haven't specified scaling policy in that file, it defaults to automatic scaling, thus the error you're getting.
