Description
Challenge stays in status "Building" when there are errors in the input data. Instead it should show the errors. Also it is not clear, that you have to reload the "Challenge" page until the Status changes to "Complete" even if there is no error. There should be an automatically updating page showing the progress and possible errors.

Research direction
No files or tests are named in the issue. Start by tracing how the Scala backend records challenge errors and status transitions, then reproduce both invalid input and successful completion cases. Done means errors are shown instead of leaving the challenge in "Building", and progress updates without requiring repeated page reloads.
