Deploy Error: CREATE_FAILED: StaticAssets (AWS::S3::Bucket)

[coderpradp]

SvelteKit: 1.0.0-next.348 @yarbsemaj/adapter-lambda: 0.9.1

Copied serverless.yml as is from this repo to root directory. Build was successful however I'm getting Error: CREATE_FAILED: StaticAssets (AWS::S3::Bucket) on deploy. Tried removing everything (serverless remove) and deploying again but same error.

Here are some logs if it helps:

I forgot to modify the bucket name in serverless.yml. Bucket name needs to be unique.

[richardvaldivieso]

I have the same problem, but I do not want to change the name of the bucket every single time that I deploy, how can I fix this problem?

[yarbsemaj]

Hi @richardvaldivieso, thank you for your interest in my project!

you shouldn't need to change the service name with every deploy (unless you want to deploy multiple sites), the issue described above is caused by 2 factors,

• The name of s3 buckets must be globally unique.
• The name of the s3 bucket is derived from the service name in the serverless.yml file (thus the name in the severless.yml needs to be globally unique).

Once the static assets bucket has been created then serverless should not try and recreate it and instead should just deploy your assets to the existing bucket.

Thanks James
