Local install, build status cycles between "repository is beeing created right now" and "Build jobs have been processed, new reposity is not yet created"

We have a local OBS instance. We are successfully building multiple projects for multiple distributions. However, recently trying to add ubuntu21.10 we have run into the problem:

Build is flagged as successful. Log looks like the one for ubuntu21.04 (which builds and publishes fine). The text of the status symbol in the web-gui (the one that should end up as a green delivery truck..) repeatedly cycles between "Repository is being created right now" and "Build jobs have been processed, new repository is not yet created".

What could be the cause? Or, How do we go about debugging this?
