InvalidEntrypoint for AWS Lambda with python docker container

I’ve built an image for Lambda using public.ecr.aws/lambda/python:3.8 but always get this error.

Tried changing up the function and file names, but not getting any more details for debugging.

Also I’ve run the function locally and the entrypoint/cmd works.

    Turned out to be an architecture compatibility issue -

    Needed to make sure the arch matched between the lambda function, and the docker image.

    Locally I was building on an M1 with arm64 but the function is configured by default to use amd64

    I changed my build command to
    docker buildx build --platform linux/amd64 -t <image_name>:<image_tag>

    Although I could have also updated the arch type for the lambda function to use arm64

    For those weary travellers using Serverless framework and experiencing similar issues…

    I had the same for nodejs and docker on Mac M1 using the standard aws-nodejs-docker-demo.

    To Jeremy’s point above, yes you can also simply add architecture: arm64 to serverless.yml to change the lambda architecture. Arm should be sightly cheaper too.

    provider:
  name: aws
  region: ap-southeast-2
  architecture: arm64
  ecr:
uploaded to ECR
    images:
      appimage:
        path: ./

    You should then see the function version switch architecture from x86_64 to arm64
