r/aws on Reddit: Lambda Python Dockerfile Yum
December 5, 2023 -
Hi, I've been creating some code and uploading it using a Dockerfile image into AWS ECR. Then I load the image onto AWS Lambda where I run the code.
My docker file starts like this:
Start with the base image
FROM public.ecr.aws/lambda/python:3.11 as build
Install system-level dependencies for Chrome and FFmpeg
RUN yum install -y unzip atk cups-libs gtk3 libXcomposite alsa-lib \
I've been using this docker file with docker build and uploading it for weeks now without any issue. Today when I did docker build I got this error:
=> ERROR [ 2/16] RUN yum install -y unzip atk cups-libs gtk3 libXcomposite alsa-lib ERROR: failed to solve: process "/bin/sh -c yum install -y unzip atk cups-libs gtk3 libXcomposite alsa-lib
Which I thought could be the base image, that did not have yum installed. But it is the same 3.11 as previous days.
Any idea or solutions to this? Do you guys know if the base image python:3.11 has changed in any way recently?

I think it's AWS linux 2 base image that all their lambda images are built on changed. I believe we have to use APK now. I just pulled the latest amazonlinux2 image and confirmed it does not have yum and does have apk.

Having the same issue. It appears that the update is supposed to only affect python 3.12 but it is affecting python 3.11 images as well. https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/compute/introducing-the-amazon-linux-2023-runtime-for-aws-lambda/ AWS also states that `dnf` is replacing `yum` but no `dnf` exists within the 3.11 image. I get this error when calling `dnf`: `dnf: /var/lang/lib/liblzma.so.5: version `XZ_5.2' not found (required by /lib64/librpmio.so.9)`

Create a Lambda function using a container image - AWS Lambda
AWS periodically provides updates to the AWS base images for Lambda. If your Dockerfile includes the image name in the FROM property, your Docker client pulls the latest version of the image from the Amazon ECR repository · . To use the updated base image, you must rebuild your container image and update the function code ... The Node.js 20, Python 3.12, Java 21, .NET 8, Ruby 3.3, and later base images are based on the Amazon Linux 2023 minimal container image.

How to Create Amazon Lambda Function with the Container Image (Dockerfile) | by Dogukan Ulu | Medium
2 weeks ago - # Python version can be changed depending on your own version FROM public.ecr.aws/lambda/python:3.9 # copy requirements.txt to container root directory COPY requirements.txt ./ # installing dependencies from the requirements under the root directory RUN pip3 install -r ./requirements.txt # Copy function code to container COPY lambda_function.py ./ # setting the CMD to your handler file_name.function_name CMD [ "lambda_function.lambda_handler" ] If we have any other Python script, any data file, or any other type of file, we have to copy all of them with COPY command. This sample will illustrate the logic of creating a simple Docker image.

These images are published to the Lambda public ECR repository and DockerHub. To learn more about how to use these images, check out the AWS documentation on how to Create an image from an AWS base image for Lambda. Each image contains Amazon Linux system libraries, the language runtime for a given programming language, dependencies, certificates, AWS SDK (Node.js, Python, and Ruby only) and the Lambda Runtime Interface Client (RIC).

March 5, 2025 - The base image provides an environment variable in LAMBDA_TASK_ROOT. We can copy our Python code and install our dependencies in this directory. We then set the CMD to our handler function, this should be . with your respective values. Using our Dockerfile we can build our Lambda container image "numpy-lambda-container" with the following command.
