Error when deploying an AWS example stack

Question

Hi  
  
I am deploying the "Demo Stack" available here :   
  
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/solutions/latest/aws-service-catalog-validation-pipeline/demo.html  
  
Parameters:   
Email address for SNS notifications - I provided mine  
Optional ARN for role - left blank  
  
Error:  
Services	  
CREATE_FAILED	  
Embedded stack arn:aws:cloudformation:us-east-1:XXXXXXXXXX:stack/DEMO3-AWS-SCValidationPipeline-Demo-Services-98QRJWO5OE2/11dfbce0-32d1-11e9-93a9-0a437bda7b86 was not successfully created: The following resource(s) failed to create: **GenerateReportLambda, DeployToS3Lambda, ProvisionProductsLambda**.  
  
It is not clear what permissions is missing -- so I am not able to proceed from here.  
  
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Answer

Nevermind .. I was able to overcome this. If this helps anyone:  
  
The "Events" list of this stack was not helpful but the error came from a nested/embedded stack creation.  
  
I was able to click on the corresponding stack in the "resources" tab and in turn look at the list of all events in that stack creation -- and spot the detailed error events there.  
  
It turns out there was a validation error on the LENGTH of a value that ended up becoming too long (longer than 64 characters) as it was constructed using the stack name I supplied appended with some other strings.  
  
I simply had to use a shorter name for my stack and it worked :)  
  
Turned out to be a rather trivial issue in the end.
