It seems that the 204 error is fixed upon analyzing/fixing the changes made at the time the 204 error was occurring.
The cause was the kind of code as below executed in the application's entry point. function setEnv($key, $val){ putenv("$key=$val"); $_ENV[$key] = $val; $_SERVER[$key] = $val;}setEnv(CACHE_DRIVER", "memcached"); We are using Lumen Framework. This was to switch environment for unittest, but the 204 error stopped occurring after deleting this. So far the 204 error was occurring 10 times every 1 minute, but after deploying this change we are not seeing the error for about 1 hour. Not sure if this is a GAE/PHP or Lumen Framework specific bug, but reporting just in case it might be helpful for someone. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
