Brett, to be clear what you mean by deleting the indexes, would that mean deleting both the .index and .indexer directories under each of our repositories? Will Archiva be available for use while those are being recreated? We fixed an issue a few months ago by deleting the database and I don't recall that affecting availability, not sure if the index is different.

We can probably help with those errors individually, although if you are looking for a clean attempt you can move the Archiva database and indexes out of the way and restart it - that should certainly correct the issues if you can afford the time and CPU cycles to reindex.
