I have a package that I'm intending to deploy on an AWS lambda (following [this tutorial](https://fabianfett.de/getting-started-with-swift-aws-lambda-runtime)). The package has 2 targets - the library is one target, and the lambda is another target (the executable). The lambda target basically just has 1 file (main.swift) and imports the library.

When generating the code and running a standard executable (not for a lambda), all of the normal commands pass (build, run, and test). All of my resources are compiled and work correctly.

However, when I build and deploy on the lambda function I created, I get the following error:

```swift
Fatal error: could not load resource bundle:
from /var/task/<package>_<target>.resources
or /src/.build/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/release/<package>_<target>.resources:
file <target>/resource_bundle_accessor.swift, line 11

```

I do see that it is similar to [this topic](https://forums.swift.org/t/swift-5-3-spm-resources-in-tests-uses-wrong-bundle-path/37051), but when running `swift test` it works just fine.

I can post my Package.swift file, package structure, just not sure what's relevant.

I figured out that it was a problem with the shell script (package.sh). It wasn't copying over the resources into the lambda.zip it was creating

Out of curiosity, how are you using these resources? what kind of resources?

I think I have this same issue. It seems like my resources are included properly, but I keep getting the same error message no matter what I try. What exactly did you change in the package.sh script?
