'AWS Lambda Error: Could not unzip uploaded file

I am trying to update the code in my lambda function using the aws-sdk package for node.js. So I wrote the following script to run for deploying the code

var AWS = require('aws-sdk');
AWS.config.loadFromPath('./config.json');
var lambda = new AWS.Lambda();

var params = {
    FunctionName: 'FunctionName',
    ZipFile: 'fileb://deploy_package.zip'
}

lambda.updateFunctionCode(params, function(err, data) {
    if (err) console.log(err, err.stack);
    else console.log(data);
});

the problem is that when I run the script I get the following error:

{ InvalidParameterValueException: Could not unzip uploaded file. Please check your file, then try to upload again.

I have tried deploying the zip file from my computer as well as CircleCI and I have also tried using the AWS CLI, all with the same result.

I have everything I need in the zip file and in the config.json. What could I be doing wrong here?

Your ZipFile params is incorrect, it must be a buffer. Try change to :

var fs = require('fs');

var params = {
    FunctionName: 'FunctionName',
    ZipFile: fs.readFileSync('deploy_package.zip')
}

lambda.updateFunctionCode(params, function(err, data) {
    if (err) console.log(err, err.stack);
    else console.log(data);
});

I encountered this problem and solved it.

Looks like you are zipping the zip file. Thats why it is unable to zip it once again.

PS: If you are using AWS-S3, Uncheck the "GZIP files" option.

Solution 3:[3]

Node js . use like

fs.readFile('lambda/function.zip', (err, data) => {
   if (data) {
      console.log(data)
      lambda.createFunction(data);
  }
})

My solution is close to those mentioned above but slightly different. Maybe because of that difference it solved this issue for me:

import AWS from 'aws-sdk'
import fs from 'fs'

const file = fs.readFileSync(`myFileName.zip`)

const params = {
  Code: {
    ZipFile: Buffer.from(file),
  },
  ...
}

// Then standard SDK Lambda implementation:

const lambda = new AWS.Lambda({ apiVersion: '2015-03-31' })
lambda.createFunction(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});
