I have been using the Google Cloud speech recognition service for some time, through a python application.
Due to accidentally copying my Google Cloud json file to a GitHub shared location (I was doing a backup), I suddenly got a warning from Google Cloud that I was violating the rules as json is private. Then, I promptly removed the file, but nevertheless, I got an email saying that my resources for my project "santo1" were suspended, saying some reasons of "cryptocurrency mining" which I have no idea.
I applied to reactivate and my appeal was accepted promptly, saying that my resources about santo1 were reinstated.
Unfortunately, the speech recognition still didn't work.
Launching it from python, it records from the microphone but no answer from the service - and no error messages at all.
Then I attempted the following:
regenerate API
create a new json
create a new project with its own json under my same google account
as suggested by the Google Cloud chat operator, I manually clicked play to the VM resource that appeared stopped
create a new gmail account, with another new project, setup with billing and everything (also reconfigured through "gcloud init")
None of these attempts worked.
I need assistance on this, as the chat operator didn't seem capable of telling me more.
Thank you in advance
Best regards
I would recommend you to contact GCP support for this case as your cloud service could be still in suspended status regardless your access is OK
Apparently, the access key is stolen and used by hackers and they did crypto mining using your GCP account, hence your service account was banned
If it's your testing account/project, you should consider to create a new project rather than continue with it, the hacker could create some other services which you may not realize until too late
Worse case is it's your PROD service, then you'd better review the bill and transaction report thoroughly

I'm presently looking into GCP's Deployment Manager to deploy new projects, VMs and Cloud Storage buckets.
We need a web front end that authenticated users can connect to in order to deploy the required infrastructure, though I'm not sure what Dev Ops tools are recommended to work with this system. We have an instance of Jenkins and Octopus Deploy, though I see on Google's Configuration Management page (https://cloud.google.com/solutions/configuration-management) they suggest other tools like Ansible, Chef, Puppet and Saltstack.
I'm supposing that through one of these I can update something simple like a name variable in the config.yaml file and deploy a project.
Could I also ensure a chosen name for a project, VM or Cloud Storage bucket fits with a specific naming convention with one of these systems?
Which system do others use and why?
I use Deployment Manager, as all 3rd party tools are reliant upon the presence of GCP APIs, as well as trusting that those APIs are in line with the actual functionality of the underlying GCP tech.
GCP is decidedly behind the curve on API development, which means that even if you wanted to use TF or whatever, at some point you're going to be stuck inside the SDK, anyway. So that's why I went with Deployment Manager, as much as I wanted to have my whole infra/app deployment use other tools that I was more comfortable with.
To specifically answer your question about validating naming schema, what you would probably want to do is write a wrapper script that uses the gcloud deployment-manager subcommand. Do your validation in the wrapper script, then run the gcloud deployment-manager stuff.
Word of warning about Deployment Manager: it makes troubleshooting very difficult. Very often it will obscure the error that can help you actually establish the root cause of a problem. I can't tell you how many times somebody in my office has shouted "UGGH! Shut UP with your Error 400!" I hope that Google takes note from my pointed survey feedback and refactors DM to pass the original error through.
Anyway, hope this helps. GCP has come a long way, but they've still got work to do.
my development team has been sparingly trying out Google Cloud Platform for about 10 months. Every member was using the same account to access GCP, say team#example.com. We created three projects under this account.
Starting in about July, we cannot see these projects in the GCP console anymore. Instead, there is one project named My First Project, which we have never created.
However, our original GCP projects still seem to exist, as we can still access for example some of the Google Cloud Functions via HTTP.
Therefore, I have the impression that the connection between our account and the projects has been lost.
OR
A second account with the same name has been accidentally created?
Additional curiosities:
Yesterday I tried to create a Google Cloud Identity account, using team#example.com. It did not work; when entering that address the input field showed an error like "Please use another email address. This is a private Google account." (It was actually in German, so I'm guessing the translation.)
When I go to accounts.google.com, the account selection screen offers team#example.com twice. No matter which entry I choose, I always end up in the GCP console with My First Project.
How can I recover my team's GCP projects?
Which Google support site may I consult to check on the account(s)?
Usually, there is a 1:1 mapping between a certain email address and a Google Account. However, this can be broken under certain situations - for example when creating / deleting / migrating G Suite or Cloud Identity accounts under the domain the email address uses.
If you hit such an edge case, there's not much you can do yourself. Reach out to GCP Support who should be able to resolve the issue for you.
Keep in mind that orphaned resources have a timer on them before they are deleted - so act quickly and do not rely on apps still responding being a sign that they will continue indefinitely.
I'm newbie in AWS, with my free tier account I'm trying to build my nodeJS project with AWS CodeBuild but I get this error:
Build failed to start The build failed to start. The following error occured: Cannot have more than 0 builds in queue for the account
I followed the simple aws tutorial, leaving all default settings for let aws create all service, image etc for me.
Also I stored source code in a AwsCodeCommit repository.
Could anybody help me?
In my case, there was a security vulnerability in my account and AWS automatically raised a support ticket and suspended all resources that were linked to it. I had to fix it and then on chat with aws support they resumed my service.
I've seen a lot of answers around the web suggesting to call support, which is a great idea, but I was actually able to get around this on my own.
As the root user I went in and put in a current credit card. The one that was currently there was expired. I then deleted my CodeBuild project and create a new one. Now my builds work! It makes sense that AWS just needed a valid payment method before it allowed me to use premium services.
My solution may not work for you, but sure I hope it does!
My error was Project-level concurrent build limit cannot exceed the account-level concurrent build limit of 1 when I tried to increase the Concurrent build limit under checkbox Restrict number of concurrent builds this project can start in CodeBuild Project Configuration. I resolved it by writing to support to increase the limit. They increased it to 20 and it works now as expected. They increased it even though I'm on Basic plan on AWS if anyone's wondering.
My solution was to add new service role name and the concurrent build to 1. This worked
I think your issue is resolved at the moment. Any way I faced the same issue. In my case I had a "code build project" connecting to a GitHub repository. And then I added AWS Access Key and Secret hard coding the buildspec.yml file. With this AWS identified it as an unauthorized login. So they added security restrictions to the resources while opening a support issue. In such a case you can look for the emails from AWS in which they explain the reason for this behavior and the steps to get this corrected.
I'm attempting to create an integration between Bitbucket Repo and Google Cloud Build to automatically build and test upon pushes to certain branches and report status back (for that lovely green tick mark). I've got the first part working, but the second part (reporting back) has thrown up a bit of a stumbling block.
Per https://cloud.google.com/cloud-build/docs/send-build-notifications, Cloud Build is supposed to automatically publish update messages to a Pub/Sub topic entitled "cloud-builds". However, trying to find it (both through the web interface and via gcloud command line tool) has turned up nothing. Copious amounts of web searching has turned up https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/google-cloud-visualstudio/issues/556, which seems to suggest that the topic referenced in that doc is now being filtered out of results; however, that issue seems to be specific to the visual studio tools and not GCP as a whole. Moreover, https://cloud.google.com/cloud-build/docs/configure-third-party-notifications suggests that it's still accessible, but perhaps only to Cloud Functions? And maybe only manually via the command line, since the web interface for Cloud Functions also does not display this phantom "cloud-builds" topic?
Any guidance as to where I can go from here? Near as I can tell, the two possibilities are that something is utterly borked in my GCP project and the Pub/Sub topic is either not visible just for me or has somehow been deleted, or I'm right and this topic just isn't accessible anymore.
I was stuck with the same issue, after a while I created the cloud-builds topic manually and created a cloud function that subscribed to that topic.
Build details are pushed to the topic as expected after that, and my cloud function gets triggered with new events.
You can check the existence of the cloud-builds topic an alternate way from the UI, by downloading the gcloud command line tool and, after running gcloud init, running gcloud pubsub topics list to list all topics for the configured project. If the topic projects/{your project}/topics/cloud-builds is not listed, I would suggest filing a bug to the cloud build team here.
Creating the cloud-builds topic manually won't work since it's a special topic that Google managed.
In this case, you have to go to the API central and disable the CloudBuild API, and then enable it again, the cloud-builds topic will be created for you. Enable and disable Cloud Build API
When I open the Google Cloud Shell Code Editor it is not loading the resources and hence I am unable to work. I have attached a screenshot below with a view of the developer tools console. Please help me out. Thanks.
This issue seems to be related to an internal project/billing configuration. Since this kind of access errors are thrown when the accounts have payment issues, I think that you should firstly verify that your billing account is in a good status; however, if you continue getting these error messages after this validation, I suggest you to take a look the Issue Tracker tool that you can use to raise a Cloud Shell ticket in order to verify this scenario with the Google Technical Support Team.
A couple things could cause this:
An interfering browser extension
Are you using any browser extensions that could be interfering
(e.g., an ad blocker)
A bug.
As #Armin_SC suggested, use Issue Tracker to file an issue in this case.
As a workaround, you might want to try gcloud compute ssh to connect to your instances.
