Hi @JoseAlbDR on the latest beta we require a 14.3 canary version of nextjs because it fixes a few critical issues for us

Do you still get this error if you upgrade your project to use next@^14.3.0-canary.7 or newer?

[paulpopus]

Closing this issue for now but let us know if the above suggestion doesn't work for you!

I’m having this issue as well.
