Firebase Functions stopped Working and Can't deploy again

Question

Firebase Cloud functions giving an error called.

Error: Server Error
The server encountered an error and could not complete your request.
Please try again in 30 seconds.

When I try to re-deploy, it gives following error.

Error setting up the execution environment for your function. Please try again after a few minutes.

What could be the reason? Is it following issue? Sates: https://status.firebase.google.com/incident/Functions/18018

After the issue is done, you will be able to deploy your functions again using the below:

firebase deploy --only functions

Edit:

I just deployed some functions and it is working now, just takes a bit of time.

Answer 2

I had the same issue and it was fixed after updating firebase-tools. I saw following on my console

         Update available 7.0.0 → 7.8.1       
         Run npm i -g firebase-tools to update   

Then i just changed node version and updated firebase tools

nvm use 11
npm upgrade firebase-tools -g

Sometimes switching environment will also help

firebase use dev

Sometimes when some node modules are not installed , the error you get will be like below

Deployment error.
Error setting up the execution environment for your function. Please try deploying again after a few minutes.

Make sure that all node modules are installed prior to deployment, I wasted almost 2 days and realised one node module was not installed .
