I haven't taken this course yet myself, so this is just a guess. But my first thought is perhaps your package only needs to contain the sources, yet the one you are having trouble with is too large because it also contains the executables?

I took the course and encountered the same problem because I didn't fully read the instructions. You only have to upload the packages, not the entire project.

Found out my issue was with gulp, had to manually install some gulp dependencies. Thanks!
