GCP function refuses to deploy - error fetching storage source: generic::unknown: retry budget exhausted (3 attempts)

Question

I am trying to deploy a Google Cloud HTTP function, using this line in zsh shell (Arch Linux):

gcloud functions deploy testing --runtime python38 --trigger-http --allow-unauthenticated

when the function is only [main.py]:

def testing(request):
   print("yes")
   return 'finished', 200

and this is the error it is giving:

ERROR:

error fetching storage source: generic::unknown: retry budget exhausted (3 attempts): fetching gcs source: unpacking source from gcs: source fetch container exited with non-zero status: 1

However, the funny thing is, that the other google cloud functions that I have (some are HTTP-trigger and some are Cloud Storage-trigger) deploy fine. The only thing I think may be the issue is a cloud function amount limit (?? maybe??)

Help me please

I have similar issue since yesterday. My issue happens with a newly created Firebase project, and not able to deploy functions yet. — Yilmaz Guleryuz, Feb 17 '21 at 08:49
The same here! I'll share if I can figure out a solution, it is frustrating indeed — Yilmaz Guleryuz, Feb 17 '21 at 08:53
In my case, the problem was caused by conflicting `nodejs` versions! I've solved my case by following https://stackoverflow.com/a/65955925/492918 — Yilmaz Guleryuz, Feb 17 '21 at 09:25
Just to make sure, are you still having the issue? I tried to replicate on my side and everything worked smoothly — Kevin Quinzel, Feb 25 '21 at 21:23
These look like isolated issues and this looks like an issue behind the scenes, the best way to get more information is by reaching to GCP support via [public issue tracker](https://cloud.google.com/support/docs/issue-trackers) as a workaround try to deploy your code GCP console (web UI) — Jan Hernandez, Feb 25 '21 at 21:29

Most likely it's because you haven't specified the directory of the code. To do this, flag --source should be used as well. Full example command gcloud functions deploy function_name --gen2 --runtime=python311 --region=europe-central2 --source=dlp-trigger --entry-point=start_dataflow_process --trigger-topic=run_topic

Remember to create a directory named dlp-trigger and put there module main.py that contains the code along with the requirements.txt
