App engine index building stalled stuck

Question

Hi,

I am having a problem with indexes building in my App Engine application. There are only about 200 entities in the indexes that are being built, and the process has now been running or over 24 hours.

My application name is romanceapp.

Is there any way that I can re-start or clear the indexes that are being built?

Thank you and kind regards Alexander M.

Answer 1

Try to redeploy your application to appspot, I have the same issue and this solved it. Let me know if this helps.

To handle "Error" indexes, first remove them from your index.yaml file and run appcfg.py vacuum_indexes. Then, either reformulate the index definition and corresponding queries or remove the entities that are causing the index to "explode." Finally, add the index back to index.yaml and run appcfg.py update_indexes.

I found it here and it helps me.
