it works at the beginning button get preparing space forever after 15min. Please help. It is a docker space

Weird. Perhaps this issue? [image] Stuck "Preparing Space" Spaces I recently published the following space: Tortoise TTS - a Hugging Face Space by mdnestor Starting earlier today, users are unable to load the space, it is stuck “Preparing Space”. I am not seeing anything in the logs, and the app works fine locally, so I assume it is relating to Spaces. No idea where to start with this… any ideas?

@John6666 not working, I already add app_port to my docker space. But still after 5 min preparing space forever.

I wonder why it stops after 5 minutes of operation…? It’s slow to activate for HF restrictions, so I wonder if the server at the destination of the Space communication is doing something.

[Screenshot_2024-11-28-00-01-12-108_mark.via.gp] Same issue here. Since my account can’t login huggingface, All the spaces in my organization are stuck in “Preparing Space”, even though their status is “Running”

Solved. I deleted the associated repo and re-uploaded it, and now it works as usual
