**SDK: Docker**

**Space ID: ⁠Canaan-3/CstreamV4⁠**

**My Docker Space is currently stuck in a hard ⁠Ø Paused⁠ state and cannot be resumed or restarted through the Web UI.**

**Symptoms:**

**Clicking Restart Space immediately fails with: ⁠503 — Something went wrong when restarting this Space⁠.**

**The restart attempt fails instantly before queuing a build or generating new logs.**

**Committing updates to ⁠Dockerfile⁠ or ⁠README.md⁠ (including updating ⁠app\_port: 7860⁠ and setting host binding to ⁠0.0.0.0⁠) does not trigger a new build pipeline while the Space remains in this paused state.**
