[EP-tech] Re: Indexing issue

Okay; so there's a bunch of stuff but it's all from October 2013 and October 2014 - nothing that looks like the record that seems to be giving me the problem. Now, if I delete things off this list I presume it won't delete the actual record?

Admin page, System Tools Tab, Status button, Background Task Queue should list what the indexer is working on.
There should be an event for plugin 'Event::Indexer', action 'Index', with Parameters of '/id/eprint/xxxxxx' where xxxxx is the id of the offending eprint.  You should be able to delete or change the status on that item to a different status (e.g. Failed) to stop it being processed.

Nope! :) How would I do that?
