Research direction

Start by reproducing the serverless invoke command with mountCode enabled, event.json, and the Go binary at /var/task/bin/adaptor-k8s; compare it with the working mountCode-disabled case. Trace the plugin's mountCode handling and verify that invoking the function no longer reports the fork/exec "no such file or directory" error.

Description

configuration status: backlog

I'm trying to invoke a function locally using localstack and a Golang binary as a handler.

If I mount the directory (mountCode: True), I get the following message when doing the invoke:

# serverless invoke --function hello -p event.json
Serverless: Using serverless-localstack
{
    "errorMessage": "RequestId: b669e3f0-8ff3-1b84-748d-066ac5b8578e Error: fork/exec /var/task/bin/adaptor-k8s: no such file or directory",
    "errorType": "exitError"
}

If I set mountCode: False, the function works without issues.
