I have a Django server running in VM instance, the server working fine before this, but this morning the server was unable to access. So I tried to SSH into the VM instance, but it took a long time and shows an error that SSH can't be connected.

I then tried to restart the VM instance by "stopping" the VM instance in GCP, then "start" it back up. But it can't be started and shows this error.

Start VM instance "earthent" The resource '[email protected]' of type 'serviceAccount' was not found.


I also noticed that some of my other VM instances have the same error, but it is weird most of the VM instances in the same GCP just working fine.

This error looks like you've deleted in some wayCompute Engine default service account. Please go to IAM & Admin -> Service Accounts and check if you still have service account with name Compute Engine default service account.

To solve this issue follow instructions Undeleting a service account:

In some cases, you can use the undelete command to undelete a deleted service account. You can usually undelete a deleted service account if it meets these criteria:

  • The service account was deleted less than 30 days ago.

After 30 days, Cloud IAM permanently removes the service account. Google Cloud cannot recover the service account after it is permanently removed, even if you file a support request.

Also, you can try to reach Google Cloud Support for further instructions.
