balena local push is stuck at step "Starting builds" on device forever

Hi,
I’m having issues doing a local push to a device on my network.
It is stuck forever and when running in DEBUG mode I can see it is stuck (without any error) at:

Starting builds…

Here’s the full outline:

fritz@f0542a0 gateway-main % DEBUG=1 balena push 251bec7.local

Dockerfile.template starts with:

FROM balenalib/%%BALENA_MACHINE_NAME%%-node:18-build
ENV INITSYSTEM=on
...

but it seems that it does not even start processing it.

Device is a RPi4, balenaOS 4.07+rev3, Supervisor 14.12.1
OS Variant: development, Local mode = On
Balena CLI (on my Mac): 17.4.9

Any hints for debugging the issue?

Thanks
Fritz

Hi Fritz, this issue was fixed recently with balenaCLI v17.4.12. Update to the latest, and your build should complete.

Great, thanks for the hint! Works now! (upgraded to 17.5.1)
Cheers
