I solved this issue by above comment:

Yes, I have the following in appengine_config.py:

from google.appengine.ext import vendor

vendor.add('lib')

I managed to resolve the module loading issue by using the following instead:

appengine_config.py

import os
import google
from google.appengine.ext import vendor

lib_directory = os.path.dirname(__file__) + '/lib'

# Change where to find the google package (point to the lib/ directory)
google.__path__ = [os.path.join(lib_directory, 'google')] + google.__path__

# Add any libraries install in the "lib" folder.
vendor.add(lib_directory)

I had very likely problem in from google.auth.crypt import base and I solved it, so you can try this.

Go to the file that has the import problem, and change manually the:

from google.auth import app_engine

To the:

import app_engine
