Firebase cloud function deploy error

Question

irregularly my firebase deployment get stuck at this log:

i  functions: updating function [FUNCTION NAME]... 

After canceling the deploy and retrying it throws the following error message:

⚠  functions: failed to update function resetBadgeCount ⚠  functions: HTTP Error: 400, An operation on function [FUNCTION NAME]  in region us-central1 in project [PROJECT NAME] is already in progress.  Please try again later. 

So it seams like that the deploy got stuck and kept in the pipeline blocking further deploys. After a while it let me deploy the functions normally again. But is there an explanation for this? Or maybe even a word around?

Answer 1

Go to Google cloud functions console and see if there is red exclamation mark against your function. Then select that particular function and try to delete. once it gets deleted from there, you can deploy again successfully. if it is showing spinner, then wait till it shows red mark.
