Deploy failure due to web/apps/uploads

I am trying to deploy to my production site and am getting the following error. I reprovisioned, but the error persists. I was able to deploy fine before but it has been a couple of months since I have deployed.

My local path is: local_path: …/site

Thanks for any advice on this!

Here is the error message:

Have you normally provisioned (server playbook) the server before?
Can you provision the server now and then try again deploying?

Have you checked the owner and permissions of /srv/www/example.com and /srv/www/example.com/shared, /srv/www/example.com/shared/uploads:
Is it owned by user web and writable by owner/user?

Thank you. It was a permissions issue with the uploads folder. I ran

sudo chown -R web:www-data uploads

and that fixed it.
