Need help. I’m executing serverless deploy -v --aws-profile abc and I get an error Serverless Error - stack my-service-dev does not exist. It fails on AWS::S3::bucket step. How can I solve this error? Is there detailed level logs some where? I exported env variable SLS\_DEBUG=\*.

Same issue. I’d like to let engineers deploy to a stack like dev-johndoe1 and have it just work. Is that possible?
