The statusDescription header must contain the status code and reason phrase, separated by a single space -- ALB returning 502 from Lambda #507

Description

@Kralizek

I've created a Lambda that check on a DynamoDB table the existence of a record matching host and request path and, if found, returns a redirect to the matching URL.

My Lambda returns this response but the ALB returns 502.

{
    "statusCode": 301,
    "statusDescription": null,
    "headers": {
        "Location": "https://www.my-target.co.uk/"
    },
    "multiValueHeaders": null,
    "body": "Redirecting to https://www.my-target.co.uk/",
    "isBase64Encoded": false
}

This is the log I find in CloudWatch for the Lambda function

This is the response I get

I couldn't find anything saying we can't return non-200 responses from Lambda, so I really have no idea...
