Deployment error. Build failed: Build error details not available. Firebase Cloud Functions

I reinstalled multiple times NPM and Node on my pc.

(npm version 7.4.3)

(node version v15.7.0)

I followed the procedure for configuring the Firebase CLI with:

npm install -g firebase-tools

and firebase init and firebase deploy and the configuration seems to work fine.

The problem I'm facing happens when I open the index.js file and I uncomment the stock helloWorld function which looks like this:

exports.helloWorld = functions.https.onRequest((request, response) => {
functions.logger.info("Hello logs!", {structuredData: true});
response.send("Hello from Firebase!");
});

I run firebase deploy and I receive this error

functions[helloWorld(us-central1)]: Deployment error.
Build failed: Build error details not available. Please check the logs at https://console.    {urlStuff}


Functions deploy had errors with the following functions:
helloWorld


 To try redeploying those functions, run:
firebase deploy --only "functions:helloWorld"


 To continue deploying other features (such as database), run:
firebase deploy --except functions

 Error: Functions did not deploy properly.

I honestly don't know what to do now. I tried multiple times to re install node and npm and re doing the Firebase CLI procedure but nothing seems to solve this problem, I still receive this Error when deploying.

The log error I receive is this :

textPayload: "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"

I was getting this error for 2 weeks, I uninstalled every package on my computer, reinstalled everything. Finally I just made a new firebase project and everything worked fine... it seems something went wrong on Google's end, by random chance, when I created our project, and no function deployments would ever work. New project and no other changes (except selecting the new project in CLI) and deploy worked fine and all functions built just fine. SUCH a pain and waste of 2 weeks, hopefully this saves others the headache!

It's much easier to find and fix issue by examining the actual logs by using this command to open the log

firebase functions:log

The specific issue will be visible there. I sometimes had error as simple as a missing packages in package.json

I wish they could show better info on the errors directly. but at least we can find them here.

I had a similar problem and wasn't solved by changing node version. What I had to do is actually enter Container Repos and delete both worker & cache images. Then I got it running (using node v12.22.1 and npm v6.14.12).
