A) The appspec.yml file contains an invalid script to execute in the AllowTraffic lifecycle hook.
B) The user who initiated the deployment does not have the necessary permissions to interact with the ALB.
C) The health checks specified for the ALB target group are misconfigured.
D) The CodeDeploy agent was not installed in the EC2 instances that are part of the ALB target group.
