Description

When running the deploy function, it checks the bucket name and then creates the bucket correctly. But the deployment process fails and exits the installation process on the next step -

"aws cloudformation deploy --template-file /tmp/tmp. --stack-name "

I am currently using Python 2.4.6 if that makes a difference and I ran the command as ./deploy awspics-lambda without the stack name or editing the default stack name within the deploy app. Is there something different with the DescribeStackResource operation in python 2 or am I missing something?

Research direction

Start at the deploy function invoked by ./deploy and trace the transition from bucket creation to the AWS CloudFormation deploy command and DescribeStackResource operation. Reproduce the shown awspics-lambda invocation, checking the reported stack-name handling; done means deployment proceeds without the “Stack does not exist” failure.
