Stalled after multiple rebuild requests

[dunovank]

Hi,

First off, stellar job on this. Really excellent tool.

I'm having a problem with the web client, after multiple attempts to rebuild binder for the repo CoAxLab/radd. It seems to be "stuck" in an early stage of the build and keeps repeating these lines:
[1] "starting build for URL: https://github.com/coaxlab/radd"
[2] "already building coaxlab-radd -- not rebuilding"
(see attached image)

Probably a user error, I accidentally closed the window before confirming the rebuild was successful. Now I can't seem to start over or reset the process.

Any help would be much appreciated!
Best,
kd

Hi,
Just to add another example to the list, I have the exact same problem with my repo: https://github.com/miykael/nipype_tutorial. It also got stuck in the "not rebuilding" loop (http://mybinder.org/status/miykael/nipype_tutorial).
I'm not sure what I did wrong, but closing the window too early, or requesting too many rebuilds within a short time could very well be the reason.

Is there a way from a user side to force a restart/reset of a build?
I'm not 100% sure, but I think this issue is connected to binder-project/binder#16

Thanks for the hard work!

Looks like the build either timed out or was cancelled. Can now build new binders, thanks!

Same thing here. I can again build new binders on this repo. Thank you very much!

Refreshing an old discussion. I have the same problem. It has been a few days now (about a full week). For reference the reop: https://github.com/ygrange/taql-jupyter.

I have two builds stuck:

http://mybinder.org/status/p-madden/sea-2016-tutorial
http://mybinder.org/status/catees/opendap_geographical_subsetting

The first has been stuck for three weeks.

I have also one here:
http://mybinder.org/status/cserti/optika
it has been a couple of days..
If I try to rebuild it it just adds one more line of

already building cserti-optika -- not rebuilding
starting build for URL: https://github.com/cserti/optika
