Not sure if the same issue (older pricing, sonnet 4, not thinking), but every few responses I get an “empty” response, meaning it is not generating, yet I don’t see ANY response (no text, no code changed, nothing). These failures should not be counted as uses…

We’re currently facing some issues with database degradation, which the team is actively working to solve now. You can track the progress on status.cursor.com, or keep an eye on the banner at the top of the forum.

The same issue occurred on Linux. After upgrading Corsor to version 1.1.4, the agent stopped working, rendering it unusable. Consequently, I rolled back to version 1.1.3. :smiling_face_with_tear:

same here, restarted cursor and 1.1.4 applied automatically, now is’s stuck on “generating…” forever, on all models. Even though it worked perfectly before the restart. even a few minutes before the restart.

The status is not up to date. “All Systems Operational”, but the bug still persists. it’s tied to version 1.1.4 update probably, and not directly a database problem i suppose

I just stated getting this after updating to latest. 1.1.4 also. Stuck on generating.

Same issue on two separate windows machines.

Same still stuck generating

Yea, that status page is not correct. It has been several hours now and all I get is “generating…”

If you’re still seeing the Generating issue, this won’t be tied to the downtime earlier, but a bug somewhere!

I’ve passed this to the team to look into shortly :folded_hands:

I have the same problem

Same here. Please fix guys!
EDIT: My cursor works for older projects but on recent project, it stops working.

Yes. I am having the same problem. It is not generating anything

Mine is stuck on generating as well - began last night around 7 pm EST.

Same issue here after updating to Cursor 1.1.4. Hope the team fixes this quickly - it’s making Cursor unusable for existing projects. :pensive_face:

workround: old chat doesn’t work for me, but starting a new chat in the same project, or opening a new project - seems to work.
