  "textContent": "Hi team,\n\nI am running into a Space runtime issue that looks platform-side rather than application-side.\n\nMy Space appears to be stuck in a broken runtime-control state.\n\nSymptoms:\n\n  * Build logs complete successfully.\n  * Factory reboot from the Space UI returns 503.\n  * Restarting via API also fails with:\n{“error”:“Something went wrong when restarting this Space.”}\n  * Changing Secrets or Variables does not trigger a new runtime.\n  * The Space UI does not show “Duplicate this Space”.\n\n\n\nBecause of this, I cannot roll out updated code even though the image itself builds successfully.\n\nWhat I tested:\n\n  1. Normal UI restart\n  2. Factory reboot from the UI\n  3. Changing Secrets / Variables to trigger a runtime restart\n  4. Restart via API:\nPOST /api/spaces/<repo_id>/restart\n  5. Direct network access to huggingface.co from my local machine is fine\n\n\n\nObserved behavior:\n\n  * Build phase succeeds\n  * Runtime restart/control actions fail\n  * The Space remains stuck on the old runtime state\n\n\n\nExample API result:\n{“error”:“Something went wrong when restarting this Space.”}\n\nRequest ID from the UI error page:\nRoot=1-69b97e50-53d7be5809cc76cd7ec31f5e\n\nCould you please check whether this Space is stuck on the platform side and help reset or recover its runtime state?\n\nThanks.\n\nAdditional details:\n\n  * This affects deployment of new code, not just the currently running app.\n  * The issue is reproducible both from the UI and from the API.\n  * Local HTTPS access to https://huggingface.co works normally, so this does not look like a local connectivity problem.\n\n",
