Builds failing with no output on Metal builder — 3 consecutive failures

Hi team,

Since 16:03 CEST today (2026-05-23) all builds on my projects are failing

with no output. Build logs only show "scheduling build on Metal builder ..."

and then nothing for 5 min until timeout.

Affected projects:

  • reserva-hamacas-production (services: reserva-de-hamacas, zesty-eagerness)
  • reserva-hamacas-staging (services: backend-staging, frontend-staging)

Failed deployment IDs:

  • 05d5330d-fda7-4287-8d01-4be088e2c402 (backend prod, 16:03)
  • 95de975e-d5e6-4639-9a3b-f53cb1865b72 (backend prod, 16:08)
  • 245a5e8f-9d2d-4958-956b-ee89b1bfc5df (backend prod, 16:12)

Last successful deploy at 14:24 same day. Same builder ID

"builder-exhnba" assigned across failures. Triple empty-commit retry

didn't help.

My account usage is normal ($10/$20 included Pro plan, plenty of headroom),

so this looks like a Metal builder infrastructure issue on your side.

This matches the same pattern as recent resolved threads:

  • "Builds repeatedly failing on builder-wkkdbn with no such job error" (9 days ago, marked [Resolved] — mitigated by Railway)
  • "Metal builder europe-west4-lk9b hardware degradation" (1 month ago, Solved)
  • "Deployment failing without any code changes" (1 month ago, Solved — Brody@Railway acknowledged builder scheduling issue)

My builds are all routed to "builder-exhnba" consistently across 3 retry attempts, suggesting builder affinity rather than random reassignment. Could you reassign my services to a different builder or restart builder-exhnba?

Could you investigate? Production deploys are currently blocked.

Thanks!

Solved

Hey, sorry for the delayed response here.

Just took a look at your services, and I can see you had builds as recently as 40 minutes ago. Guessing that means everything got resolved here?

Let me know if there's anything else I can help with. Have a great day.
