Ledger deploying to IC error

I am writing a test project using internet identity and ICP ledger. I’m able to deploy locally, but when I try to deploy to IC I get the following:

Error: Failed while trying to deploy canisters.

Have you tried copying the .dfx/local/canisters/idl folder to .dfx/ic/canisters/idl? I had a similar issue in the past and managed to solve it this way.

@Severin is this a bug of the dfx CLI?

This could be a bug that I already filed. @galenoshea would you mind sharing how you declare the ledger canister in dfx.json? (the canister id of the file that’s not found is the ICP ledger)

I see .dids are created when building locally and then they are deleted prior to the build completing. However local can still deploy
