AWS Lambda - How to fix: Unable to import module 'lambda_function': libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Question

In AWS Lambda function, I have a python file which includes some packages such as numpy, pandas, pycurl, requests,...

I provided the needed packages in a zip file, but when I run the code, i receive the following error:

Unable to import module 'lambda_function': libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Any idea?

can you share with us your lambda package structure ? and how you are importing in your main function — WalKh

@WalidK I just want to see if the uploaded python packages are working... so inside the lambda handler I only: import numpy, pandas, scipy, pycurl, requests and I print('test)... — Léo SOHEILY KHAH

My case was running rust on AWS lambda and end up the error you having.

My way to get it working was including the library as a lambda layer

Get the libssl as file and zip it. In my case, the folder structure is lib/libssl.so.1.1. reference from here
Add a Lambda Layer , Choose Custom runtime, copy down the ARN
Go the function and add layer with ARN.
