amazon web services - AWS Lambda "Process exited before completing request"

Question

I am trying to call a DynamoDB client method and get one item from the DynamoDB table. I am using AWS Lambda. However, I keep getting the message:

"Process exited before completing request."

I have increased the timeout just to make sure, but the processing time is less than the timeout. Any advice?

console.log('Loading event');
var AWS = require('aws-sdk');
var dynamodb = new AWS.DynamoDB({apiVersion: '2012-08-10'});

exports.handler = function(event, context) {
dynamodb.listTables(function(err, data) {
});

var params = {
    "TableName": "User",
     "Key":
        {"User Id"   : {"S":event.objectId}
    },
    "AttributesToGet"   : ["First Name","Last Name", "Latitude", "Longitude"],
    "ConsistentRead"    : true
  }


   dynamodb.getItem(params, function(response,result) {
    response.on('data', function(chunk){
    console.log(""+chunk);
    console.log("test1")
    context.done(result);
});
result.on('ready', function(data){
    console.log("test2")
    console.log("Error:" + data.error);
    console.log("ConsumedCapacityUnits:" + data.ConsumedCapacityUnits);
     context.done('Error',data);
    // ...
});
});
};

Take a look at your memory consumption (included in last log line). I got the same message when I assigned too little memory to my lambda function.
