Segmentation fault when running wine on AWS Lambda container

Question

I have this docker file that displays the wine version:
```
FROM electronuserland/builder:wine

ENTRYPOINT [ "wine", "--version" ]
```
When running this on my local docker, it returns the version of wine.

```
>> docker build -t wine-version .
>> docker run wine-version
>> wine-7.0
```

but when I uploaded it to AWS ECR and use it as my lambda function container, it printed `exited with error: signal: segmentation fault`
Arch: x86_64

Expectation:  wine version should be printed on the logs.
```

END RequestId: bc7b454b-22c9-4373-aaa3-091c8c4fa17c

Answer

You cannot run any docker container as a lambda function.

The docker container has to have either an AWS provided runtime or if you are creating a custom image, then you have to use the open source Lambda Runtime Interface Clients.

Another requirement is that the container image should have lambda code in the format that lambda expects the code to be in.

Have these requirements been met in the container image that you are trying to run as a lambda function?
