CodeDeploy is trying to run the script 'scripts/stop_server' and failing e.g. because the script is not present at this location.

If the script is at this location, check whats wrong with the execution by inspecting the log at:

/opt/codedeploy-agent/deployment-root/[deployment-group-ID]/[deployment-ID]/logs/scripts.log

Replace '[deployment-group-ID]' and '[deployment-ID]' with actual Ids of your deployment.
