When running “serverless deploy --verbose” the deployment fails effectively silently.  
The only output is “Serverless: Packaging service…” and then the process ends.

I am using the [clojurescript plugin.](https://github.com/nervous-systems/serverless-cljs-plugin)

Are there logs or anything I can use for troubleshooting?

Do you get anything more interesting if you run “`SLS_DEBUG=* serverless deploy --verbose`”

If not, you’ll probably just have to log a ticket against the plugin.

Double-check that you are actually in a serverless project folder/directory that has a `serverless.yml`.  
I just caught myself with this same error… forgetting i’d cd’d up one level earlier 🤦‍♂️
