Hello i configured a sleepAfter of 2 minutes, but there is a container running for over 20 hours now

Hello i configured a sleepAfter of 2 minutes, but there is a container running for over 20 hours now and the last interaction is 50 minutes old but it keeps staying up
is this normal or a bug and how do i stop it?

Hi! I participated in Private Beta. I might be affected by https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-sdk/issues/9898.

My specific error is:

"The image registry does not exist"

"The image registry does not exist"

I'm requesting manual Container registry provisioning, please.

Hey looking for help... the instance is running now for over 40 hours without any interactions in it. It seems that the sleepAfter is not triggering
In the meanwhile there is a second instance that is not stopping

You can pull a list of objects per DO namespace using the REST api

Lemme find the doc one sec

I was hoping that I could emulate this in development, but would be happy to look at that API. Thank you!

It should be fixed now

Is it possible to run whisper-large on a container? Is there some kind of GPU support?

kian•8/4/25, 9:18 PM

Not currently although we do have Whisper on Workers AI (https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers-ai/models/whisper-large-v3-turbo)

Rapid•8/4/25, 9:49 PM

Yeah I'm gonna use it for now, just looking on how to reduce latency on that.

Rapid•8/4/25, 9:49 PM

Even though it's probably minor if it sits in the same datacenter

Rapid•8/4/25, 9:49 PM

But still want to minimize latency to 0

is there a template for building (and deploying) the docker machine in github CI?

jmickelly•8/5/25, 8:13 AM

Hey, I just have a question around Cloudflare containers, does it support nested virtualization, such that it can run microVMs in the container using KVM?

McKamyk•8/6/25, 3:51 AM

Will containers sleep if there's an active websocket to them?

Yash•8/6/25, 11:54 AM

Hello Cloudflare team,
Do you have any update on when this limit will be removed and when direct public image support will be available?
This is an important feature for supporting Cloudflare containers with most images and ensuring a more scalable solution.

wrangler deploy from github gives 403 for the containers part, it works triggering the same npx wrangler deploy from a local machine, are we missing something in the wrangler part to avoid 403?

kian•8/6/25, 5:47 PM

Does the token you’re using have the right permissions?

Anyone using Containers and can give insight into how stable they are in terms of instances not randomly shutting down for no reason? I have a use case where instances would need to stay up for around 4 hours, I know there's zero guarantee with DO/Container eviction but just curious how people are finding things before I put in the dev time to prove my concept

AAaronO What's driving the hard requirement on 4h non-stop ? Ideally it's better to have...

1984 Ford Laser•8/7/25, 6:59 AM

Event based usage where an event goes for roughly 4 hours

1984 Ford Laser•8/7/25, 7:02 AM

Just curious is anyone was seeing any consistent eviction of instances on that time frame. Containers is designed to be used for bursty workloads, but I want to make sure its suitable for my usage before getting too deep into it

fryan•8/7/25, 9:58 AM

Anyone experimenting with passing information back from the container to the overlapping Durable Object?

Ie: container processes something then stores results in DO

does cf workers support something like worker container that start on spawn with arguments and die after finishing the job?

Is it possible for me to run postgress on cloudflare containers?

Alexander Lewis•8/7/25, 12:00 PM

Just wondering if anyone has stumbled across this issue - Using wrangler and containers to setup a puppeteer image with devtools websocket url passed back to the requested user - Trying to get a local nodejs and php-chrome project to connect to that containers websocket but it is very hit and miss whether it connects, a lot of the time commands fail and seems the web socket drops out - Could this be a wrangler issue?

Kkian Does the token you’re using have the right permissions?

scotto•8/7/25, 12:32 PM

Not using a token, just connected the GitHub repo directly in the worker, I'm missing something ?

scotto•8/7/25, 12:33 PM

Works for any worker without container but with container we had that 403, I don't see any option to set permitimos there

McKamyk•8/7/25, 9:57 PM

when running

wrangler dev

wrangler dev

on a container DO, is the container not given a tty instance?

McKamyk•8/7/25, 10:01 PM

I'm trying to run electric-sql locally with wrangler-dev and it errors out with something that seems to resemble not having a TTY, though admittedly I'm not very erlang/elixir knowledgable. The container runs just fine when I
