How deal with Error: Failed to find Server Action?

[J4v4Scr1pt]

Summary

Have an NextJs 15 application running in Standalone mode on a k8s cluster. It works just great, but from time to time I see the below Error in our DataDog logs.

How do you approach this error? Maybe it's an unavoidable error? E.g. if a user have a tab open and we deploy something new and then the user tries to use a function that points to an old version.

[Error: Failed to find Server Action "703m36f2a5b470326026df98114b165be87b2ec178". This request might be from an older or newer deployment. Original error: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'workers')]

Sounds like Version Skew, https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/deploying#version-skew

@icyJoseph do you think this error: [TypeError: controller[kState].transformAlgorithm is not a function] could also be related to this or are they completely different?

[icyJoseph]

Uff that sounds like something ends up breaking in Node.js, from what I've gathered at least... What Node.js version do you have?

[J4v4Scr1pt]

We use Node 22 > node:22-alpine.

Hi I am also facing the same issue. #76149
And I am not sure if this is version skew as well, especially I can see some of the missing action ids stays
same after new deploy.

I’m also getting this issue. I am on node version 20 and I am seeing this issue locally not in production although I have not yet checked my production logs to see if it’s happening there too.
