Netlify deploys the editor but not the preview

Please help!

I’m stuck in the deployment of the “sanity-kitchen-sink” editor-preview example, that is outside its “local” development environment. Netlify successfully deployed the editor to

http://sanity-kitchen-sink-studio-4s8bs6r8.netlify.app

but the preview to http://sanity-kitchen-sink-web-x6tpo9s1.netlify.app

failed. The deployment log shows no error, and ends with

"GraphQL API deployed to

https://slm8njcb.api.sanity.io/v1/graphql/production/default

Build exceeded maximum allowed runtime"

Any pointers will be most welcome!

hey there, do you have a full build log you can paste here or link us to?

maximum allowed runtime indicates that your build process is needing more than the default-availble 15 minutes, but without seeing a full build log it is hard to say why.

Thank you for responding Perry! Here’s the log …

Looks like at this point the build just stops and does nothing. We can increate the build time, but I don’t think that’s the problem here. The question you might need to find an answer for is, why’s the build stopping at this point? Are you expecting to see something after those lines?

Thank you Hrish!
I’ll delve deeper, my understanding of this jig-saw is still VERY limited! I see a file resolvePreviewUrl.js under studio, where there is a “localhost” or “remote” option …
The fun continues …

Hey there @Hennie53 :wave:

We hear you on the fun part-- enjoy delving deeper :slight_smile: I recommend checking out some of our Support Guides as well. A good place to start would be: [Support Guide] Frequently encountered problems during builds

If you end up wanting additional Netlify Support here, please let us know the following:

  1. The latest summary of the issue you are encountering / what you are hoping to resolve
  2. What additional debugging steps you have taken.

Thank you for answering and with the pointer Hillary! I’ll keep on drilling …
(Looks like the preview code queries the “production” dataset via GraphQL in order to build the preview, so I need to get a better understanding of how this works … The instructions from Sanity for a remote build also gives Gatsby instructions - how this fits in with Netlify is still a mistery too …)
Regards,
HR
