I noticed many people are posting about their Spaces being stuck at ‘Starting’. After investigating, I found a critical detail: The UI is misleading, but the backend is actually working fine.If you check your container Logs, everything runs successfully in the background. The application initializes, but the frontend status on the Hugging Face UI just fails to sync and stays frozen at ‘Starting’.Don’t waste time changing your working code; it is a platform-side UI sync glitch. Hugging Face team, please look into this status update delay!

UPDATE: The ‘Starting’ status bug is now fully fixed! Everything is Running."Quick update for everyone! The Hugging Face team has successfully patched the UI synchronization glitch.As expected, it was purely a frontend status latency issue, and no changes were needed on our code or backend setups. My Space (and many others) transitioned smoothly from ‘_ **Starting** _’ to ‘_ **Running** _’ with the green dot fully restored.Thank you to the Hugging Face developers for the quick manual patch, and thanks to everyone who shared their logs here. We are back online! 🚀🎉
