I have a project here that seems to have one of the machines in some kind of zombie mode. I am unable to start or delete the machine either. This has been happening for over 24 hours now. I am also not able to deploy anything whether from local or via GitHub Actions. How can I fix this?
Hi… This can happen when the underlying physical host is down or having anisotropic† network problems. (Singapore did have a spate of the latter a while back, if I recall correctly.) Do you see any notifications on your personal status page?
Also, it might help to try fly m destroy --force from the command line. (It’s not clear to me whether that can actually work when the underlying host is unreachable, but it would make sense if the platform as a whole had something that did!)
†By this I just mean that connectivity is fine is some directions but bad in others…
Running the command also doesn’t seem to work as the machine is completely unreachable.
If this is unable to be fixed, perhaps my best bet would be to delete the whole app and make a new one, but not sure if I would run into the same issue with being unable to delete the machine.
People have reported in the forum in the past that deleting the entire app does work in this kind of situation, although obviously that’s rather drastic…
It might be worth waiting a little longer. (Host problems aren’t always noticed immediately.)
Sorry you’ve been having so much trouble with this!
