Firebase Functions: "Failed to get status of functions deployments" : <p>I am getting a very strange error when I attempt to deploy my firebase functions. </p>

<p>As a test to rule out my code, I deleted everything except the <code>require(firebase-functions);</code> statement in my <code>index.js</code> file and then tried to deploy, but I again received the same error message: </p>

<pre><code>Error: Failed to get status of functions deployments.
</code></pre>

<p>It also prompts me to see my function log file, but there is nothing new or relevant outputted there. Anyone have any idea how to fix this? </p>
