I am using below dependencies and it works fine with sls offline. but when I try to deploy to aws lambda it gives me an Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, lstat ‘{path\_to\_dir}/.webpack/.serverless’  
.serverless dir is created to ‘{path\_to\_dir}/.serverless’

“dependencies”: {  
“serverless-offline”: “^3.15.3”,  
“serverless-webpack”: “^2.2.2”,  
“webpack”: “^3.5.5”,  
“webpack-node-externals”: “^1.6.0”  
}

My webpack.conf.js is as below

var nodeExternals = require(‘webpack-node-externals’);

```
module.exports = {
    entry: './handler.js',
    // context: __dirname,
    node: {
        process:true,
        __filename: true,
        __dirname: true
    },
    target: 'node',
    module: {
        loaders: []
    },
    // output: {
    // libraryTarget: 'commonjs',
    // path: '.webpack',
    // filename: 'handler.js', // this should match the first part of function handler in serverless.yml
    // },
    externals: [nodeExternals()],
};
```
