Description

In case terraform cannot upload the state file to the configured bucket it writes it to a file errored.tfstate.
It is important to preserve this file so that manual error handling can be done (e.g. upload file manually).

In addition it might be beneficial to check before that permissions and infrastructure setup is properly configured for running the terraform deploy command.
