I am using this Dockerfile to deploy to App Engine Flexible environment.

FROM gcr.io/google-appengine/python 
RUN apt-get -y update && apt-get -y upgrade
    && apt-get install -y software-properties-common 
    && add-apt-repository -y ppa:ubuntugis/ppa 
    && add-apt-repository -y ppa:deadsnakes/ppa 
    && apt-get -y update && apt-get -y upgrade
    && apt-get -y install python3.8 python3.8-distutils python3.8-venv 
       gdal-bin libgdal-dev python3-gdal  
    && apt-get autoremove -y 
    && apt-get autoclean -y 
    && apt-get clean 
    && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

RUN virtualenv /env -p python3.8
ENV VIRTUAL_ENV /env
ENV PATH /env/bin:$PATH
ADD requirements.txt /app/requirements.txt
RUN pip install -r /app/requirements.txt
...

I’ve been using this configuration for at least a year and deploy to GCP regularly. As of this morning, when I try to deploy I’m getting these errors:

I’m not sure I want to change my Python version, since some of the packages use Python3.8.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

    In my case, I was using Ubuntu 16.04 and deadsnakes was no longer supporting Python3.8. See https://github.com/deadsnakes/issues/issues/195

    I changed Docker to use FROM ubuntu:bionic and that allowed Docker to install Python3.8.


  2. According to Google’s documentation, you also need to add a Dockerfile in the same directory that contains the app.yaml file. For building Python containers, Google provides this base image:

    enter image description here

    The Python runtime has Python 2.7.9 and Python 3.7.2 pre-installed. You can customize the Dockerfile to install other versions or alternative interpreters if needed.
    You can specify whether to use Python 2 or Python 3 in your application’s Dockerfile when creating the virtual environment:

    Python 3

    RUN venv /env -p python3.7

    Python 2 (implicit)

    RUN virtualenv /env

    Python 2 (explicit)

    RUN virtualenv /env -p python2.7

    Here is some more information regarding Python Runtime, App Engine flexible environment, Python 3 Runtime Environment.
