Yeah, same issue here… you can start it with sls dynamodb start but really needs to auto start with serverless-offline.

Edit: it seems I have found the solution… run serverless offline with the command: serverless offline start

# ✅ works
sls offline start
serverless offline start

# ❌ not work
sls offline
serverless offline

sls offline and serverless offline dose not start dynamodb-local automatically. But sls offline start and serverless offline start dose start dynamodb-local automatically.

Because serverless-dynamodb-local has hook with before:offline:start.

So you need to add start.
