This occurs when you are running the docker image without a --privileged flag, or without a --cap-add=SYS_PTRACE flag. You are not able to debug any running program, and since the Swift REPL is implemented as a front-end to an lldb debugging instance, it follows that the Swift REPL will not work without the container being launched without either of those flags.
