# This is a Bug Report

## Description

We were trying to deploy service that would read from a Kinesis stream and the deployment failed with the following message:

`Template format error: Unresolved resource dependencies
     [IamPolicyLambdaExecution] in the Resources block of
     the template`

I am including my serverless.yml for reference:

```
provider:
  name: aws
  runtime: python2.7
  region: ap-southeast-1
  role: testKinesisStream

functions:

    events:
      - 
        stream:
          arn: "arn:aws:kinesis:ap-southeast-1:XXXXXXXXXXX:stream/StreamTest"
          batchSize: 100
          startingPosition: LATEST
          enabled: false

  Resources:

Discussion:
Hey @aashish004 thanks for reporting.

We're currently working on fixes for the stream support in those PRs here:

- https://github.com/serverless/serverless/pull/3111
- https://github.com/serverless/serverless/pull/3083
- https://github.com/serverless/serverless/pull/3141

Those will be merged the upcoming days (hopefully) 👍  They should resolve the problem you're currently facing
Is this going to be resolved anytime soon?
@aashish004 thanks for getting back.

Could you please try that again with the new Serverless version?

We've pushed some fixes in the last couple of weeks regarding those kind of issues...
Still got the same problem using the following setup:

```


I'm also seeing this issue.  Looking into it I can see DependsOn is not being filled out correctly in the compiled CF for a particular case when a custom role defined.

 OK if I submit a PR for a proposed fix?
