first I installed the serverless with 'npm install -g serverless' command. Then I gave 'serverless' command. So following error was displayed on the cmd.

I had checked with Aaron's answer, but it didn't work for my case.

Issue on my side was with my company's VPN, as it was blocking sending/receiving the data. I went with the below steps that solved my issue.

Solution

  1. Try disabling the VPN.
  2. Run the command again.
  3. Verify if it works.

Also make sure that your IAM user has necessary privileges to perform this by attaching necessary policy in the AWS's IAM User page.

If you're using a machine provided by an employer, they may have installed self-signed SSL certificates in order to connect to internal systems or run fleet management software.

You can override strict checking in Node by either prepending the command with NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0 serverless, or permanently with npm config set strict-ssl false.
