I'm experiencing the same issue without a separate build plugin like webpack, babel, etc.
This plugin works fine with serverless-offline, but I can't get it to deploy.

[rashid301]

I have the same issue as @nathanchapman . After sls package, .build directory is deleted and all artifacts move to .serverless folder. But the path mentioned in stack.json is .build/.serverless/<artifcact>. It seems the path is relative to something

[rashid301]

Workaround (hacky) to fix this was to NOT delete folder .build during packaging. This duplicates artifacts in 2 places. One in .build/.serverless/<artifacts> and another in .serverless/<artifacts>. But it satisfies all package and deploy processes

[PavelYaroshchyk]

Hi, is there a fix for it? The problem seems to be still there.

 Operating System:          darwin
     Node Version:              14.2.0
     Framework Version:         1.71.1
     Plugin Version:            3.6.12
     SDK Version:               2.3.0
     Components Version:        2.30.10

plugins:
  - serverless-webpack
  - serverless-plugin-typescript
  - serverless-offline

serverless-plugin-typescript: 1.1.9 (downgrade to 1.1.7) does not seem to help.

[melaku-z]

It looks like the problem is the order the following plugins are listed in:

plugins:
  - serverless-webpack
  - serverless-offline-sqs
  - serverless-offline
  - serverless-plugin-typescript

The doc states Add the plugins to your serverless.yml file and make sure that serverless-plugin-typescript precedes serverless-offline as the order is important.
The order should be changed to:

- serverless-plugin-typescript
- serverless-offline

[amouly]

Any update on this?

[kuda1992]

Any fix for this ?

[veloware]

I hit this problem when I forgot to create a tsconfig.json if that helps anyone. I wasn't using serverless-offline so that was irrelevant for me.

[kuda1992]

Found a fix for the remove the serverless-plugin-typescript plugin from plugins. The serverless-plugin-typescript doesn't work with the serverless-webpack plugin

[shukla2512]

Removing the serverless-plugin-typescript works for me. Webpack can compile your typescript files using ts-loader, use that instead and remove the type-script plugin.

[GreGosPhaTos]

Downgrade the version of my local serverless seems to fix the issue.
Went with npm i --save-dev [email protected]
previously it was 2.2.37

That said, some of you did have the issue with older serverless versions ...
I am not using webpack, but I use serverless-plugin-typescript & serverless-offline
Hope it helps .

[rojanawi-droople]

Just had this issue appearing again today when I updated to 2.37.0. I reverted to 2.35.0 and it fixed it.

serverless.yml plugins

plugins:
  - serverless-plugin-typescript 
  - serverless-offline
  - serverless-aws-documentation
  - serverless-plugin-git-variables
  - serverless-plugin-log-retention

package.json modules versions

    "serverless-plugin-git-variables": "^4.0.0",
    "serverless-plugin-log-retention": "^2.0.0",
    "serverless": "2.35.0",
    "serverless-aws-documentation": "^1.1.0",
    "serverless-offline": "^6.9.0",
    "serverless-plugin-typescript": "^1.1.9",

[GeroSalas]

Same here. I tried with [email protected] and [email protected] and was fixed.

[rnnyrk]

Still an issue overhere. No clue what the no such file or directory, stat .build/.serverless means..

[noeleo]

Having same issue here.

[blochmat]

I am using [email protected], [email protected] and [email protected] and ran into the same issue.

serveless plugins:

plugins: [
        'serverless-dotenv-plugin',
        'serverless-webpack',
        'serverless-webpack-prisma',
        'serverless-plugin-typescript',
        'serverless-offline'
],

It seems that using serverless-plugin-typescript is unnecessary and leading to errors when also using serverless-webpack. (mentioned in this comment)
Deleting serverless-plugin-typescript resolved the issue for me.

new serverless plugins:

plugins: [
        'serverless-dotenv-plugin',
        'serverless-webpack',
        'serverless-webpack-prisma',
        'serverless-offline'
],

Make sure your serverless, serverless-plugin-typescript etc. are in devDependencies and not in dependencies:

"devDependencies": {
    "serverless": "^3.23.0",
    "serverless-offline": "^11.2.3",
    "serverless-plugin-typescript": "^2.1.4",
    "serverless-python-requirements": "^6.0.0",
    "typescript": "^4.8.4"
  }
