I'm using Airbyte 1.7.2 deployed with `abctl` locally, and the connector builder doesn't seem to work at all.

Whenever I make a change in the connector builder, and Airbyte tries to validate things, I get a
&gt; POST <http://localhost:8000/api/v1/connector_builder/manifest/resolve> 503 (Service Temporarily Unavailable)
error, followed by a bunch of
&gt; Retrying request to /api/v1/connector_builder/health due to temporarily unavailable server (HTTP 503). Retry 1/3
In the interface it just says "An unknown error has occurred". Any idea what can I troubleshoot?

Maybe `abctl` didn't install the connector builder service properly? :thinking_face:
