I am fairly new to both google compute engine and Odoo. I have recently started a google compute engine with Ubuntu-16 installed. I have successfully followed instructions on Odoo website to install and start Odoo server. When I try to access my Odoo instance from another computer by going to
IP-address-of-server:8069
I find
ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED
Following are the firewall rules for the instance. Please guide me on how to solve this problem. Please feel free to ask for any additional information.
You have multiple things to make sure what exactly is your problem. Check whether odoo service is working by entering systemctl status odoo-server
This should show whether your service is started (and enabled) or not. Check this then reply back.
Also, while accessing your odoo server, use http request instead of https.
Try if you can connect from the VM itself to Odoo. Log in to your VM with ssh and then use curl localhost:8069 or wget localhost:8069. If that's successful, it's a firewall issue.
If it is a firewall problem, add a rule similar to the default-allow-http, but for the port you need. Then add the tag of your rule to your VM instance. You can do this in Cloud console.

My google cloud instance (10.128.0.3) lost network connectivity somewhere just after 0400 this AM. I am running Centos 6.10) The network interfaces are up and have IP addresses. Unable to ping default gateway (10.128.0.1). Firewall rules (google and local) have not been changed/modified. This instance has been online for several years with no recent changes made. Any suggestions would be helpful and appreciated.
This is a known issue when updating to kernel 2.6.32-754 that is affecting both Red Hat, and CentOS images, and seems related to this DHCP update. The Compute Engine team are already aware of this issue.
Meanwhile, and in addition to the great suggestions above, you may also use a startup script ( add the default gateway IP address) to fix this issue, and then restart your instance. Todo so without access to the instance simply add a metadata for the instance with the name startup-script and the content of the below script (make sure to update the gateway to your, it can be found in the VPC Page)
#!/bin/bash
route add default gw [default_gateway_ip] eth0

I accidentally messed up Windows Firewall of my VPS and now I can't connect using RDP anymore.
Is there a way to reset the firewall rules without deleting and creating a new instance? Already checked the FAQs and found nothing about it, same goes for the cloud shell. The firewall rules that I can see on the web manager seems different of my Operational System firewall.
The best way is to use Google Cloud console.
Go to the Windows Instance
Edit the Instance and add the following key/value pair to Custom Metadata section
key is: windows-startup-script-cmd
value: netsh advfirewall set allprofiles state off
This resets the firewall to Off when booting and you can get back in with the RDP client as before.
Please open Cloud Shell on Google Cloud Platform web console.
Type: gcloud compute firewall-rules create openrdp --allow=tcp:3389
Try to connect your machine again.
I have created instance on google cloud platform (allowed http traffic). Used Ubuntu 14.04 OS. Installed oracle java8 and apache-tomcat.Placed war file in tomcat webapps and started server. Server started successfully.
Question is how to access my application, tried accessing external ip of instance from web browser but no response.
Can anyone tell me the process or missing things I have not done.
Thanks in advance.
I had the same issue and eventually solved it
In my case the solution was simple.Check the firewall rule is really tcp:8080 and not tcp:80 as created by default.
Changed this and finally saw my tomcat welcome page.
1)Added http port (8080) in firewall rules in Networking section
2)Refreshing VM instance by click refresh option before accessing with external ip followed by http server port(8080)
I hope after following first step, need to refresh VM instance to access web serve with external IP
I am trying to connect to google cloud sql instance from eclipse in my app engine connected android project.
So far i am able to connect to cloud sql instance using Class.forname("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"). But it requires authorising my ip address in google cloud sql every time i want to use the instance hence making it unfeasible.
I know that while connecting from app engine i dont need to authorize my ip address. Bur for that i have to use GoogleDriver ie. Class.forname("com.mysql.jdbc.GoogleDriver").
But when i run my code it gives me ClassNotFoundException.
I am stuck at this situation for a long time. Please give me a proper solution to the problem
The GoogleDriver is only intended to be used when actually running on App Engine. When running from eclipse or the dev_appserver you will have to use the stock com.mysql.jdbc.Driver class, and you will have to authorize your IP address. A good example of this is shown in the documentation, which demonstrates how to choose in code which driver to use. Note the commented out line for connecting from your dev environment to Cloud SQL.
As an FYI don't forget to enable the connector for running on App Engine.
I have authorised 0.0.0.0/0 in access control in my cloud instance and now all the devices are able to connect to the cloud instance with stock mysql driver ie. com.mysql.jdbc.Driver without need to changing authorised network again and again in access control.
Still can't figure out to implement GoogleDriver but for now this solution will work.
If anyone find a more better and general way to connect to cloud instance please post your answer.
I am having a bit of an issue with the VM Instances on google cloud. I installed and set up apache and a website with it but now I am trying to configure a custom domain and when I try to add it in SSH I get the following error:
ERROR: (gcloud.dns.managed-zone.create) ResponseError: status=403, code=Forbidden, reason(s)=insufficientPermissions
message=Insufficient Permission
I have also tried the directions at the following https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/domain and am getting a 404 not found error on my domain. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You say you are having an issue with a VM instance and are trying to set up a custom domain. Those two are in very different realms. VM instances are under Compute Engine (except for Managed VMs, which live under App Engine, but that is beside the point). Custom Domains are features just of App Engine.
What do you mean that you are trying to "add it in SSH"? Did you mean DNS? If so, see my answer below.
What command are you running to get ERROR: (gcloud.dns.managed-zone.create) ResponseError: status=403, code=Forbidden, reason(s)=insufficientPermissions message=Insufficient Permission?
The docs apply to App Engine, not Compute Engine. That you are getting a 404 error is no surprise if you don't also have a corresponding app running in App Engine.
If you are trying to create a DNS hostname for a web site hosted on a VM instance on Compute Engine, I recommend that you either (a) use a static IP address and a static A record pointing to it, or (b) use an ephemeral IP address and set up a dynamic DNS A records pointing to it. (I use freedns.afraid.org for my DDNS.)
