Additional Information

It looks like the path which we are looking for in the production build is incorrect.
We will address this

Hi @ndcunningham . Is it possible that this issue is the same as:

I can see the file generated during the build process that is dealing with types has a wrong path:

if it's not related, should I open a new issue?

All I need to do to reproduces it is to enable app dir:

in a NextJS project.

While running nx serve my-next, the appDir works fine,
when running nx build my-next, the error above happens.

@AgentEnder what about @marianzburlea's issue?
