Hi,
after building my Next-App, and then trying to start it, I get the following error: 
node .next/standalone/server.js
node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1144
  const err = new Error(message);
              ^

Error: Cannot find module '../../lib/get-network-host'

@American black bear Have you resolved it by any chanced?

I created an issue with the same problem

Yeah I have, everything is running smoothly for me now, not quite sure what I did though, I’ll have to take a look in my commit history

Well, there's a workaround to include the entire monorepo as tracing root
outputFileTracingRoot: path.resolve(process.cwd(), '../../'),


But that'd place my nextjs project deep into standalone like:
.next/standalone/projects/ui/server.js instead of just .next/standalone/server.js
