Workflow showing execution animation when not running

Questions
1

Hi everyone,

I’m experiencing a UI bug on my self-hosted n8n instance. Some workflows show the execution animation badge on the Schedule Trigger node even when they are not actually running.

Details:

  • n8n version: 2.12.3

  • Installation: Self-hosted via Docker on Ubuntu 24.04

  • The animation appears on workflows that are not being executed

  • Confirmed by checking the Executions tab — no active executions

  • Happens on multiple workflows

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a known fix?

Thanks!

hello @Reda_Meslak

Did you run the execution manually?

Hi @Reda_Meslak Welcome!
Just reload your page that would work or use a different browser, also consider restarting your n8n instance as sometimes that could fix this.

Yes, I did run a workflow manually for testing, but it was a different workflow. The animation is showing on a workflow that I never ran. It seems like the animation is appearing on the wrong workflow.

Thank you! I tried reloading the page and using a different browser but the issue persists. I will try restarting the n8n instance

Hey @Reda_Meslak,

This issue is happening because of cache. Try to reload your browser close the n8n and then reopen it. After that it will fix automatically.

@Reda_Meslak give your instance a restart that will fix it!
