Guys, I've managed to sort of bump into a solution, but I have no clue why it works.
I was using 'on' as a name for one of my datastore entity properties. For some reason this works fine on the localhost and an entry for 'on' appears in the index.yaml file. On updating the app however, this seems to cause some problems as this particular index never updates. Changing the name of this property to something else solved this problem. Is 'on' a reserved word or something for the yaml format? Do you think this was what was causing the issue. If yes then I guess Luís was right when he suggested verifying whether there was a syntax error in the index.yaml. Can someone also please tell me whether or not the index.yaml file plays a role in running the app on localhost or not. I cannot comprehend why the app (even the feature that needed that particular index) was working fine on localhost if the index.yaml was malformed and the same app breaks down for the want of an index it fails to update. Thanks for all the fish.
