AWS ECS - exit code 137


I am trying deploy my application with AWS ECS and docker. running the environment locally on my machine with docker-compose up works. however once converted and moved to ECS I am getting error 137

I have searched the exit code and it could be ram related so I launched a larger container with 8gb of ram, still get the same issue. (there is only two images running)

I've run the images manually by connecting to the container and running "docker run -it "imagename" /bin/bash and they run without issue.

Can anyone see the cause or how I can troubleshoot this?

This is my task:

EDIT:


I think I found the issue, but am not sure why I'm getting it?

service itapp-web was unable to place a task because no container instance met all of its requirements. 
The closest matching container-instance 315a7d85-1e1a-4a66-9173-e1fc2c17fda2 is already using a port required by your task.
