The story says that the crew timed out.

Getting everyone a hotel and departing again with the same crew after their mandated rest period was still the quickest way to get the flight going again.

There was unfortunately some folks who could not enter Schengen, they did their best to make them comfortable in the airside transit area in VIE.
