Have you looked at the Netlify Next.js documentation to check the project configuration is correct

Here:

Hi @HigorR456 ,

Could you post a screenshot of your build settings and also your package.json please

HigorR456 · March 28, 2023, 12:52pm

hi sam, I solved the deploy directory ‘dist’ error by changing it to ‘.next’ but now my page has ‘page not found’ error, you can see it here: https://task-app456.netlify.app/
you can see package.json here: Task-App/package.json at main · HigorR456/Task-App · GitHub

The site appears to load correctly for me @HigorR456 so I assume you tracked down the issue?
