Code deploy reports: “Deployment Failed: No hosts succeeded”, while deploying from S3 .zip revision to EC2 instance

Question

I'm trying to make an automated CI workflow from Bitbucket to aws EC2 instance using Jenkins hosted in a separate EC2 instance.

I created and configured everything needed (IAM roles, aws client and code deploy agent) as the following article describes:
https://pranavpshah.wordpress.com/configure-aws-codedeploy/

Btw, all the instances are based on ubuntu and running inside a private VPC, and I'm deploying a node.js application.

For instance, I can successfully create a .zip build in S3 bucket, every time I push to Bitbucket repo. But in Code Deploy dashboard, I get "Deployment Failed No hosts succeeded." error message.

the status "In progress" takes more than 5 min, every time I start the process.

When the deployment process finished with the status failed, I checked /var/log/aws/codedeploy-agent/codedeploy-agent.log file, and here is what I got:

Am I missing something in the configuration ?
Any help please?

I just checked the detailed information for the deployment Id "d-FEPBDKJMC", seems the instance id is "arn:aws:ec2:us-west-2:219450671821:instance/i-d796060e" instead of "arn:aws:ec2:us-west-2:219450671821:instance/i-348913ed" inside the host agent log that you pasted. So probably should check the log on the right instance.
All the lifecycle events are skipped for the deployment, and I suspect the host agent is not pulling command at all. Since you mentioned that the instance is under a VPC, please make sure Codedeploy and S3 endpoints are whitelisted(We need to connect to these endpoints to do deployments). There is also a doc here about Codedeploy working with VPC, please click Security: https://aws.amazon.com/codedeploy/faqs/.
