I currently get a ClassNotFoundException whenever I try to test my Lambda function on AWS Lambda. The exception is shown here:
I've searched online, including this link here: AWS Lambda: class java.lang.ClassNotFoundException, to no avail.
I am working in Android Studio and created a JAR file (using this link: How to make a .jar out from an Android Studio project) to use to upload the class to the AWS Lambda console.
Below is the structure of my project:
When I upload my JAR file to the AWS Lambda console, the Configuration tab looks like this:[
I was previously told that it could have been because my JAR file was not an executable JAR file with a MANIFEST.MF file, but I definitely have that.
Any other reason as to why this error consistently pops up and how to fix it?
Your handler needs to include the full Java package. In your example, you need to have the handler be:
edu.csulb.android.riseandshine.Dynamodb::handleRequest
This is configured on the Lambda screen where you currently have Dynamodb::handleRequest
EDIT
My "hello world" Lambda in looks like the following. Note that this is a maven project so the code has to live where maven expects it. At the "root" of the directory where you're developing is the pom.xml file (below) and the Java file needs to live in src/main/java/com/hotjoe/aws/lambda/hello/handler.
Once you have that and maven installed, run mvn clean package. The deployable jar will be target/hello-world-lambda-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar. I deployed this to Lambda just now and can run it with the test:
{ "key3": "value3", "key2": "value2", "key1": "value1" }
which is the default for the Lambda tests. This is all taken from the AWS docs on creating a deployment. In my example, the Lambda handler is com.hotjoe.aws.lambda.hello.handler.HelloWorldLambdaHandler::handleRequest.
The code I've used is below.
HelloWorldLambdaHandler.java
package com.hotjoe.aws.lambda.hello.handler; import com.amazonaws.services.lambda.runtime.Context; import com.amazonaws.services.lambda.runtime.RequestHandler; @SuppressWarnings("unused") public class HelloWorldLambdaHandler implements RequestHandler<HelloWorldLambdaHandler.InputObject, String> { public String handleRequest(InputObject inputObject, Context context) { System.out.println( "got \"" + inputObject + "\" from call" ); return "{\"result\": \"hello lambda java\"}"; } public static class InputObject { private String key1; private String key2; private String key3; public String getKey1() { return key1; } public String getKey2() { return key2; } public String getKey3() { return key3; } public void setKey1(String key1) { this.key1 = key1; } public void setKey2(String key2) { this.key2 = key2; } public void setKey3(String key3) { this.key3 = key3; } @Override public String toString() { return "InputObject{" + "key1='" + key1 + '\'' + ", key2='" + key2 + '\'' + ", key3='" + key3 + '\'' + '}'; } } }

The stack trace indicates that the Java runtime cannot find a class named "Dynamodb". There is no such class in the AWS SDK for Java .. the correct class name is "DynamoDB". Notice the difference in case between your class from the exception stack trace and the correct name.
