Aws-lambda-dotnet: Failed to create CloudFormation change set: Received malformed response

[dalton5]

Hi,

When I publish my aws lambda function I have a final error with this:

Uploading to S3. (Bucket: wtbucketlambda Key: WT-serverless-xxxxxx.template)
... Progress: 100%
Found existing stack: True
CloudFormation change set created
... Waiting for change set to be reviewed
Failed to create CloudFormation change set: Received malformed response from transform AWS::Serverless-2016-10-31
Failed to publish AWS Serverless application

Do you know how can I fix it?

It's a big issue because I can't publish my lambda function

Thanks,

My serverless template:

}
}`

My aws lambda tools default json file

Having the same issue for the last a few hours. It was working yesterday with the same template. The thing is, that's a template deploying a DynamoDB table. No lambdas. I just saw this thread and wanted to say that this may be a more general issue unrelated to lambda

[matthewdenobrega]

Same for me for a template that is unchanged and was working previously, so this looks like a regression.

[NithuPMTR]

I'm facing the same issue too. However, the aws health check dashboard does not show any indicators for service disruptions in us-east-1. https://status.aws.amazon.com/ Is everyone seeing this issue in us-east-1?

An older thread of similar issue which was due to aws service being down. https://github.com/aws/serverless-application-model/issues/793

[NithuPMTR]

This seems to be fixed now !

[ashishdhingra]

Hi @dalton5,

Good morning.

Per comment from @NithuPMTR, please verify if this works now for you and confirm if this issue could be closed.

Thanks,
Ashish

[chgong]

It works for me now.

[dalton5]

Yes it works. You can close. thanks

Hi All,

The issue is tracked here https://github.com/aws/aws-lambda-dotnet/issues/765. Looks like there is a service outage for us-east-1 region. Service teams are working on it and the issue should be resolved soon.

Thanks,
Ashish

[slitsevych]

facing the same issue when attempting to update/create SAM stack in N.Virginia.
I wish I found this thread earlier as I've already deleted stack thinking that the problem would be solved by recreating it from scratch(

yeah me too, us-east-1.

[slitsevych]

us-east-1 region is experiencing lots of outages at this moment. we can monitor AWS service health dashboard to check current status of outages/operational issues.

and as for an issue to watch for in relation to our problems here - Kinesis operational issue (_Amazon Kinesis Data Streams (N. Virginia)_:

8:05 AM PST: Kinesis is experiencing increased API errors in the US-EAST-1 Region. This is also causing issues with ACM, Amplify Console, API Gateway, AppStream2, AppSync, Athena, Cloudformation, Cloudtrail, CloudWatch, Cognito, Connect, DynamoDB, EventBridge, IoT Services, Lambda, LEX, Managed Blockchain, Resource Groups, SageMaker, Support Console, and Workspaces.
