This is a regression, see this ticket:
https://github.com/eprints/eprints/issues/47

You can get a patch here:

Yes, possibly out of date - although it depends on what you're doing.

If you're adding fields then,
./bin/epadmin update [repoid]

Will do the trick.

Can you narrow down to what request that error is responding?

That sounds odd. Any errors in the Apache log?

What happens if you do a ./bin/generate_abstracts [repoid] [itemID] ?

The core EPrints search doesn't support negated search queries (direct
database queries for all records != would be impossible to do quickly).
I think using Xapian would allow you to do this via simple search:
info:(-eagle)
(i.e. search in 'info' field for not-eagle)
