Unable to do sam deploy

When I try do deploy the SAM App created in this tutorial, I receive the following error:

[79988] Failed to execute script main

I have the credentials created and I can see them using aws configure list. In fact, SAM has even created the S3 bucket on my account, but throws the error for some other part of the stack.

I solved it by creating a named profile. Somehow, AWS-CLI was finding the credentials, but SAM-CLI was not. I just recretad the profile with a name and used the --profile tag on SAM commands.
