The "path" argument must be of type string. Received undefined

[DineshChacko]

I followed the quickstart guide - https://www.serverless.com/framework/docs/providers/knative/guide/quick-start
node - v16.14.2
serverless version:
Framework Core: 3.10.2
Plugin: 6.2.1
SDK: 4.3.2

I was able to setup knative successfully on AKS Cluster.
Creating new service from template was successful but deploy failed:

serverless deploy
Environment: win32, node 16.14.2, framework 3.10.2, plugin 6.2.1, SDK 4.3.2

npm info react-scripts version

This is due to the serverless kubernetes package on npm looking for the user's home directory via process.env.HOME instead of something more portable. A quick workaround is to set the HOME variable to the value in USERPROFILE.

But beware this plugin is not in good shape. (I haven't gotten it working yet.)
