TypeError: The "string" argument must be of type string or an instance of Buffer or ArrayBuffer. Received an instance of Object

See original GitHub issue

Hi! Thanks for all the work you’ve put into this project. I’m following the quick start tutorial and have managed to set things up, after a some setbacks with simple_oauth library.

But, currently, I’m having an issue viewing my blog posts. I can see them at the home page and can also see that all their content is fetched in home page, as a collection. But once I visit a specific one (blog/first-post, as in blog/[node:title]), I get a 404 in the Network tab in Google Chrome.

And also this error.

 1 of 1 unhandled error

Unhandled Runtime Error
Error: Failed to load script: /_next/static/chunks/pages/404.js

Source
.next\static\chunks\main.js (83:51) @ HTMLScriptElement.script.onerror

  81 | //    executes when `src` is set.
  82 | script.onload = resolve;
> 83 | script.onerror = ()=>reject(markAssetError(new Error(`Failed to load script: ${src}`)))
     |                                           ^
  84 | ;
  85 | // 2. Configure the cross-origin attribute before setting `src` in case the
  86 | //    browser begins to fetch.

I guess the following error is due to not getting any data in the response.

I am experiencing the same phenomenon.

The version I am using is as follows.

next-drupal: 0.16.2
next.js (Drupal Module): 1.0.0-beta5

I refer to this code, On the Drupal side, the page loaded successfully by applying the following patch to the subrequests module.

        "patches": {

I faced the same issue (Drupal 9.2). As per @taku3202 comment, applying Drupal Subrequests patches solved it :
