Error trying to use codedeploy to load code onto a auto scalable group of EC2

Question

When I try to run codedeploy, I get the following error :

The overall deployment failed because too many individual instances failed deployment, too few healthy instances are available for deployment, or some instances in your deployment group are experiencing problems.

When I look at the ec2 instances created by the auto scalable group, they are both running, and status is passed 2/2 checks passed in green. I am wondering if this is just a catch all error, because its supposed to throw this error if one or both or all are not running.

Thanks for the reply .It was nothing to do with the instances. It was a missing appspec.yml. The error message was very misleading. — Anton Cavanaugh, Aug 26 '21 at 21:46

It seems it wanted an appspec.yml. I am not sure why a appspec.yml is needed, If you create the autodeploy group, and create the codedeploy application, why is there a need for a appspec.yml. I am using jenkins to run the code deploy. I gave it a appspec.yml that is empty, and seems to work.
