I'm attempting the Google App Engine "hello world" example found here. I'm using the Go language, and following exactly the steps given in the above-mentioned tutorial. Additionally, I've installed Go using the installer here. I'm running Windows 7 x64.
When I run the sample app, using the command prompt:
dev_appserver.py c:\@Code\Go\myapp
I get the following response:

All of the paths above seem to be valid (although admittedly I don't know what any of them mean) with the exception of the last temp folder. As you can see in the sample app, fmt is the first import. If I swap the two imports, I get the same error but for net/http.
I know Go is properly installed because I can run the following test Go app:
package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
fmt.Printf("hello, world
")
}
...directly from Go.
I've tried messing with all of the various Environment Variables at no avail. But, seeing as to how the test Go app will work, I'm thinking this has something to do with the App Engine.
