Hi folks,

Roboflow’s RF-DETR model has stuck for a few hours in “Stopping..” after being early stopped.  
How to get it finally stopped? are the credits being charged during this time?  
Appreciate your help.  
- Project type: Object detection  
- OS/browser: macOS/Chrome  
- Workspace: padel-qz0j6

I’m sorry for the inconvenience - can we have permission to access your workspace temporarily to identify the root cause and best next step?

I’ll pass this along to a teammate who can also make sure your account is not charged additional credits for any time spent in a stopping state.

Following up, we have identified the root cause and will fix this issue soon - my team will review your account and issue a refund for the remaining time after you stopped the training job. I’m sorry for the inconvenience, and appreciate your patience while we fix this.

@shantanubala Sure, you have the permission to access. Looking forward to a fix, please let me know if I will be able to use intermediate checkpoints (if any are saved). Thanks a lot!

Thank you - although you are not able to use an intermediate checkpoint, I’ve gone ahead and issued a credit to your account for the credits used by the training job. We’ve made several improvements, and RF-DETR training should be more reliable in the app now. I’m sorry for the inconvenience!

Hi!  
I have faced a similar issue with training RF-DETR. I have been searching for relevant help and finally found this chat. I have attached the image proof of the issue. I tried to train it around last week on small plant dataset. The credits for the image augmentations, version generation and Model training have been consumed but the error message says model stalled and no result. I am currently on Student Research plan that I use for my Honors Project. My April month credits are all used up and I’m not able to make further progress in my project. It is affecting my work. Please Please Kindly respond.
