ran python deploy.py -s dev unsuccessfully

I don't understand what is going on, but I think I've managed to do all earlier steps successfully.

Hmm, odd.

The bit that's failing is:

            # https://stackoverflow.com/a/4760517
            result = subprocess.run([makefile_long, self.data_dir],
                                    stdout=subprocess.PIPE,
                                    stderr=subprocess.PIPE,
                                    cwd=this_lambda_dir,
                                    encoding='utf-8',
                                    bufsize=1)

Try running it with python 2? (I thought I did it with python 3, but maybe I'm remembering wrong.) Or python 3.6?

Have you added any custom code yet? Anything specific to your bot? Or just cloned and deployed?

Maybe try removing encoding='utf-8' from the bit above?

What are you deploying from? Ubuntu, Amazon Linux, Windows?

Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial. I've updated to python 3.5 from 3.6 and set it as by default following online guides but some errors come up ://

Hmm, odd. I haven't heard of gdbm before.

Maybe I have some standard python modules installed which you don't.

Try pip3 install gdbm --user, or sudo apt install python3-gdbm.
