Aerospike Lua Protobuf pb.so: undefined symbol: lua_settop

I try to run simple lua udf in docker and keep getting this error:

ERROR lua create error: error loading module 'protobuf.pb' from file '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/protobuf/pb.so':
        /usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/protobuf/pb.so: undefined symbol: lua_settop

I searched over the whole interner and tried everything I was able to understand how to apply but nothing helped. I can successfully build an image, register my modules but when I run simple command it just fails with the error above:

Here is Dockerfile where I test it

COPY ./udf /udf

ENTRYPOINT ["asd"]
CMD ["--foreground"]

and the lua module

local protobuf = require 'protobuf'

function count(recs)
  return recs :
  map(function(rec)
    return 1
  end) :
  aggregate(0, function(count, rec)
    return count + 1
  end)
end

when I execute this function, it fails with the error above

aql> REGISTER MODULE '/udf/myudf.lua'
OK, 1 module added.

aql> AGGREGATE myudf.count() ON test

Solution

I prepared Dockerfile and instructions to demo it. It looks like there is a difference on how execute vs aggregate functions deal with imports. Please, notice in the examples below, that both errorudf and fineudf have local PartnerUserId = require "PartnerUserId_pb" which in its turn has local protobuf = require 'protobuf' , but only aggregate call is failing.

It seems like an issue of Aerospike itself.

> docker build -t as-lua .

> docker run -d --rm --name as-lua as-lua

> docker exec as-lua aql -c "register module '/fineudf.lua'"             
register module '/fineudf.lua'
OK, 1 module added.

> docker exec as-lua aql -c "register module '/errorudf.lua'"            
register module '/errorudf.lua'
OK, 1 module added.


> docker exec as-lua aql -c "execute fineudf.make() on test where PK='1'"
execute fineudf.make() on test where PK='1'
+------+
| make |
+------+
|      |
+------+
1 row in set (0.001 secs)

OK

> docker exec as-lua aql -c "aggregate errorudf.count() on test"
