Not able to build apps using remote-builder, it has exited. Is there any way to spin-up a new one/ get it out of inactivity?

That error is saying the target app you’re deploying to can’t be found.

What’s the contents of your fly.toml file? What happens when you run flyctl status in the directory containing your app source?

the fly.toml file

fly status gives:

Error failed to get app: Could not resolve App

The error itself is a bit abstract, before I got something like:

Error failed to get app: couldn't connect to docker. Could not resolve App

Now it is working fine, thank you for your response!

I’m glad it’s working.
