Hi there,
Have you set the Output Directory in App Platform to .next? If not, it might be looking in a non-existing location.
Also, do you have a custom build command? If so, what is it?
If everything looks correct and it’s still failing, try redeploying from scratch. If the issue persists, reach out to DigitalOcean support for further debugging: https://do.co/support.
