Dear Team,
I just cloned a Nvidia project on my AI workbench, my local system does not have a GPU and I have not added my remote / cloud GPU yet, however I see that the newly cloned project automatically starts building and since I do not have a GPU the build hangs and when I try to force stop the build the build does not stop and the project always remains in the AI workbench without giving me the option to delete it.

Any solution/workaround is appreciated!!

Thanks and Regards,
Raghu

hi - check out this post: Project never finishes building nor can I stop it from building - #5 by isoltysik

The build stopped, but still, the project is persistent in the AI workbench and is not getting deleted even with


a forceful rm -rf command.

You can delete a project manually as follows. To remove the project from the AI Workbench UI, take note of step 3:

  1. SSH into the machine if the project is on a remote location. Otherwise open up a terminal window if working in the local location (WSL distro if on Windows).
  2. cd nvidia-workbench and verify the sdxl-customization project is gone. If not, run rm -rf workbench-example-sdxl-customization to remove the project contents.
  3. Then, cd ../.nvwb and open inventory.json in an editor (eg. vim inventory.json). Remove the entry for the sdxl-customization project from the list of projects. If there are no projects remaining, make sure the json entry for projects reads {Projects: null}.
