I am experiencing a serious issue with my Hugging Face Docker Space.

Both Restart and Factory Rebuild consistently fail with a 503 error.

My Space is currently stuck in the PAUSED state, and I cannot get it running again.

The details are as follows:

Space status: PAUSED

Restart: Fails with 503 error

Factory Rebuild: Fails with 503 error

Environment: Docker Space

I have already tried both Restart and Factory Rebuild multiple times, but neither operation works.

I also contacted Hugging Face support at [website@huggingface.co](mailto:website@huggingface.co) more than a week ago, but I have not received a response.

I also posted about this issue on the official Hugging Face Discord, but unfortunately, I have not received any help so far.

Since both restart and rebuild operations are failing, I suspect this may be an infrastructure-side issue rather than a problem with my Docker configuration.

Could someone from the Hugging Face team or anyone familiar with Spaces infrastructure please help investigate this issue?

I would really appreciate any assistance or guidance on how to recover my Space.
