error on firebase deploy --only storage:rules

[David Asher]

I am getting the following error

$ firebase deploy --only storage:rules

=== Deploying to 'test-nnnnn'...

i  deploying storage
i  firebase.storage: checking config/firebase-storage.rules for compilation errors...
+  firebase.storage: rules file config/firebase-storage.rules compiled successfully
i  storage: uploading rules config/firebase-storage.rules...

Error: Cannot release resource type "firebase.storage"

The Internet seems to know nothing about this error. Any pointers would be much appreciated!

My rules file is attached.

Thanks,

David

Tracked the error down here; it looks like you may not have a default bucket set in storage. Can you share your firebase.json file to confirm that?

The error message should have pointed you in this direction. Sorry about that.

Can you try deploying storage, and see if that works? `firebase deploy --only storage`

Correct - the problem was the definition of the bucket in the firebase.json file.

Thanks!

SOLVED: the problem wasn't in the rules definition, but the firebase.json file which needed a storage.bucket property.
