Space stuck on "Building" for 9+ hours, no logs visible after Factory Rebuild

Hi Hugging Face team,

My Space has been stuck on “Building” status since this morning (approximately 9 hours now).

Space URL: https://huggingface.co/spaces/johnphw/openclaw

Issue details:

  • Status shows “Building” continuously
  • No build logs visible (tried /logs/build URL, returns 404)
  • Tried Factory Rebuild just now, still stuck on Building
  • No error messages displayed

What I’ve tried:

  1. Checked Files tab - no Logs option visible
  2. Direct access to /logs/build - 404 error
  3. Factory Rebuild - clicked, but status remains Building

Question:
Is this a platform-side build queue issue, or has my Space been disabled/flagged for review? If it’s just queued, how long should I expect to wait?

Thanks for any help!

i have the same problem too, this started to rampant like a day or 2 ago

My space is stuck too, how to solve it? I had some experience with Render , they unfroze my space after investigation because they think they had too strict regulations. They said the reason for freezing my space was I pushed more than like 8 times (can’t remember the exact number sorry guys) or so within an hour. so they froze my space. But very quickly within like several hours, they came back to me with apology and unfroze me. Hope something quick will happen here too.

How do you contact them? Is there a thread or email address I can reach out to?

I have the same problem with spaces too. Its logs say ‘===== Application Startup at 2026-03-29 15:19:35 =====‘ but the space is still stuck on building.

I’m experiencing the same issue with Hugging Face Spaces. In the past, I’ve deployed simple apps (including basic Gradio apps) without any problems, but over the past week builds have been getting stuck or taking an unusually long time.

To troubleshoot, I simplified my app down to a basic “hello world” example. It has worked occasionally, but I haven’t been able to consistently get it to build and run. I’ve tried factory resets, rebuilding, and recreating the Space, but builds can take up to an hour or sometimes never finish at all—they just stay stuck in a build loop.

The logs don’t provide any useful information about what’s going wrong.

I’d really like to get this resolved. I’m starting to wonder if there’s an issue with the build system itself or if something has changed with Hugging Face Spaces recently. I haven’t had any issues before, so this sudden change is concerning.

I have summarized the situation to date to some extent below.

My spaces are finally working again and I can build new spaces quickly. I guess there must have been some kind of update or issue over the past week. For a free service this has been a great learning tool so of course I am grateful. Hopefully it can remain stable. Thanks for the helpful informative posts everyone.

I also can build new spaces quickly. But my old spaces are facing problems. I just ended up cloning a space to a new space.
