I wrote a quick handler to delete my 500 entities, and then tried vacuum_indexes again. This time it did change the status from "Error" to "Deleting...", and a couple of minutes later they were gone! I was then able to recreate one of the five that I needed, so now I'm going to work on re-populating the datastore. Lessons learned: 1. Be very respectful of indexes, because they take along time to rebuild and delete. From now on I'm going to keep an eye on the "autogenerated" indexes and move them above the line when I'm sure I want to keep them, and delete any other autogenerated before deploying. 2. Need to become familiar with the newest datastore backup and restore procedures releases with the latest SDK, as they may come in handy in an emergency. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
