1) If you can, please include a screenshot of your problem Initial error on chat When I click Open Settings and index, it got stuck on this for around 5-8 minutes After sometime I see the following, I continue asking it questions in chat, and when it gives me hallucinated output I go back to the settings page I see the following. 2) Please include the name of your operating system MacOS Sonoma 14.6.1 (23G93) 3) If you can, steps to reproduce are super helpful

Same Issue here

[brahyam]

Same issue today on similar platform. could this be due to an outage?

[danperks]

Hi, is this issue still occurring? Seems likely that an outage or temporary bug.

I'm also experiencing this problem. Has anyone managed to find a workaround?

[KekmaTime]

[chriswep]

Hey all, devs have been notified and are looking into it - sorry for anyone having issues!

yes same issue here running on windows 11 within WSL2

Same issue here, it's a pity to see you can't rely on their services. Their reputation just goes down a bit every time theses outages occurs.

Hey @AtlasPilotPuppy, thanks for offering to help! Cursor is closed source right now and the dev team are aware of this issue, so for now there's not much that can be done, although I appreciate the offer!

If needed, a dev may ask for more info if they're struggling to reproduce an issue, so keep an eye on this issue and we'll see what happens :)

I just logged out from my cursor account and logged in with a new account. Right after, this issue showed up on all my repositories. Could it be linked?

I just logged out from my cursor account and logged in with a new account. Right after, this issue showed up on all my repositories. Could it be linked?

I had one repo already indexed and the new ones failed. I closed all the cursor windows and opened that indexed repo again and it was already failed, without loging out.

[Raleose]

There is a strange requests under the hood.

The first one is POST https://repo42.cursor.sh/aiserver.v1.RepositoryService/RepositoryStatus HTTP/1.1. It always completes by status 404 and body: {"message":"Route POST:/aiserver.v1.RepositoryService/RepositoryStatus not found","error":"Not Found","statusCode":404} I tried to modify request host to api2.cursor.sh instead of repo42.cursor.sh, but nothing has changed.

The second one is POST https://api2.cursor.sh/aiserver.v1.RepositoryService/FastRepoInitHandshake HTTP/1.1. It sometimes completes by status 500, but it's very rare case. In most cases it completes by 200, but if we look inside the proto body we will find that message contains something like that: {"status":"STATUS_FAILURE","repoName":"some guid here"} repoName isn't interesting for us, but STATUS_FAILURE - it is number 3 inside of proto serialized body.

@danperks it may be helpful for devs, i think.

I have this issue as well. I used Google Login to create my account if that helps narrow it down.

[Takyon236]

Same issue on 2 differents devices

[ubergeekseven]

same issue. I have tried indexing several times with the handshake failed ultimately occurring. I went through my codebase and added as many of the extraneous portions of my libraries dependency folders to the cursor ignore file. That did not help. I thought it would until searching led me here.

Now indexing works for me. I looked at the response body of FastRepoInitHandshake and it's status has 2 as value. Great job, thank you
