Serverless deploy doesn't work and no error to debug with --aws-profile

Serverless Framework

I’m trying to deploy serverless with narrow IAM permission specified below.

    ]
}

When I run this with --aws-profile switch the process returns after “presumably” after assumeRole with no error or any other trace.
I do not see any events in Cloudwatch and Cloudtrail as well. So basically stuck at this point. any help appreciated

I’m experiencing the same issue.

I have export SLS_DEBUG=* and no additional data is displayed. the deploy ends with assumeRole.

I have a personal account (that doesn’t assumeRole) and it succeeds fine with full deployment details and launch of services. Using profile seems to cause it to stop-short.

The same happens to me. It used to work when AWS_SDK_LOAD_CONFIG is set to true.

4

We are seeing the same exact issue when trying serverless deploy and specifying any aws-profile.
This just works if the the only profile available is default and nothing is specified so that default is picked up automatically.

Same exact lack of debugging information.

Adding my report to this as well. I have two profiles, one specified in by .profle (AWS_PROFILE=staging, and a production one (AWS_PROFILE=production) that uses AssumeRole with the same credentials.

Deploying to staging works fine:

Trying to switch to the other profile just bails, no output, even with --verbose.

Other attempts to set the profile (AWS_PROFILE=production sls deploy, export AWS_PROFILE=production && sls deploy) fail in the same way.

Looks like there’s a bug reported with this version: https://github.com/serverless/serverless/issues/5755

Downgraded to 1.35.1 and it works correctly!
