Code location stuck in "Updating..." state due to misconfigured agent queues

Last updated: October 9, 2025

If you're experiencing issues with code deployment, such as a code location being stuck on Updating... and deployment logs showing Still waiting for agent to sync changes... follow these steps:

  1. Verify that the code location is configured to be served by the correct agent queue.

  2. Check that at least one agent is configured to serve the specified queue.

  3. If the issue persists, review your agent configuration files (see below) and ensure they match the intended setup.

Remember to restart your agents after making configuration changes to ensure the new settings take effect.

Verifying agent queue configuration

To verify that your agent queues are correctly configured:

  1. Navigate to the Agents tab in the Deployment section of your Dagster+ instance.

  2. Click on View agent metadata for each active agent.

  3. Check the metadata to ensure that the correct queues are listed for each agent.
