NextJS ImageError: Unable to optimize image and unable to fallback to upstream image

I created middleware and add matcher /((?!api|_next/static|_next/image|favicon.ico|auth/login).*) in config middleware. When I try to run npm run dev.The result comes out like this:

ImageError: Unable to optimize image and unable to fallback to upstream image

Before I added middleware this was not happening, this happened when I added config matcher in middleware. Here is the config matcher on the middleware I made:

export const config = {
  matcher: [
    '/((?!api|_next/static|_next/image|favicon.ico|auth/login).*)',
    '/partner/:path*'
  ],
};

I am trying to omit _next/image from the middleware matcher. As a result, some images cannot be loaded.

Is there a way to solve the case? or maybe I forgot something when I made middleware?

Solution

This problem started to occur when I added middleware.[jt]s. I realised that all of the paths are being matched by it.

So I added this:

export const config = {
  matcher: ['/((?!api|_next/static|_next/image|favicon.ico).*)']
}

but it didn't work.

Later I updated the regex to include images folder as well because I have my images as public/images/my-image.png.

So, my working regex now looks like this:

export const config = {
  matcher: ['/((?!api|_next/static|_next/image|images|favicon.ico).*)']
}

Diff TLDR

 export const config = {
-  matcher: ['/((?!api|_next/static|_next/image|favicon.ico).*)']
+  matcher: ['/((?!api|_next/static|_next/image|images|favicon.ico).*)']
 }
