Failed to deploy sst app due to dynamodb table

Question

I am new to aws and react. I had some code working yesterday (I could put data into a dynamodb table from a React page). Today I tried to create a new table (called Events), but I did not get it to work. I then rolled back all local changes using the git command 'git reset --hard' and deleted the table 'Events' from aws management system. Now I am unable to deploy the app when I run 'npx sst start'. The error message can be seen below:

Let me know if you need anything else from the code.

Thanks

Solution was to delete all stacks from the aws management system, and then recreating them.
