Build just hangs with no messages

howdy,

so the clues are in there:

7:38:49 AM: success source and transform nodes - 10.834s
8:07:22 AM: Build exceeded maximum allowed runtime

or, more specifically, in the time difference between these two timestamps.

Our regular maximum build time for a site is 15 minutes, and your build obvsly doesn’t complete within that timeframe.

I’m not exactly sure yet why not - you may have a lingering background process that never terminates and so we can’t complete the build.

[Support Guide] How long should Netlify builds take?

You should count on your builds having only 15 minutes to complete their build command. The additional time for processing and uploading will be added to that and do not need to complete within that initial 15 minutes, and in some cases for very large sites or if our system is busy, they may stretch out to minutes or even an hour (the latter only for tens of thousands of new files in a deploy). Around unexpected timeouts, I’d suggest some reading here: [Support Guide] Hung or stuck, but seemi…

The solution is to either a.) improve your build efficiency - this is where i would start.

The answer is, it depends, but we can at least give you…

or b.) ask us to up your build time to 30 minutes. We can do this if there is a credit card associated with the account, so that we can automatically bill you for more build minutes, should you need them.
