dockerfile - Getting LibreOffice (uninstalled, files only) to work on AWS Lambda

Question

I'm nearly there, but stuck at the last hurdle.

$ /path/to/soffice.bin --version

^ This works both on my local machine (Docker Container) and on (container deployed on) AWS Lambda

However,

    $ /path/to/soffice.bin 
        --headless --invisible --nodefault --nofirststartwizard --nolockcheck --nologo --norestore --nosplash 
        --convert-to pdf:writer_pdf_Export 
        --outdir /tmp 
        $filename 
            2>&1 || true  # avoid exit-on-fail

... fails with:

LibreOffice - dialog 'LibreOfficeDev 6.4 - Fatal Error': 'The application cannot be started. User installation could not be completed. 'LibreOfficeDev 6.4 - Fatal Error: The application cannot be started. User installation could not be completed.

Searching on google, everything is pointing towards a permissions issue with ~/.config/libreoffice

And there is something strange going on with file permissions on the Lambda runtime. Maybe it is attempting to read or write to a location to which it doesn't have access.

Is there any way to get it working?
