title: Static directory is deprecated
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Why This Error Occurred
|
|
|
|
In versions prior to 9.0.6 the `static` directory was used to serve static assets in a Next.js application. This has been deprecated in favor of a `public` directory.
|
|
|
|
The reason we want to support a `public` directory instead is to not require the `/static` prefix for assets anymore and there is no reason to maintain both paths.
|
|
|
|
## Possible Ways to Fix It
|
|
|
|
You can move your `static` directory inside of the `public` directory and all URLs will stay the same as they were before.
|
|
|
|
**Before**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
static/
|
|
my-image.jpg
|
|
pages/
|
|
index.js
|
|
components/
|
|
my-image.js
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**After**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
public/
|
|
static/
|
|
my-image.jpg
|
|
pages/
|
|
index.js
|
|
components/
|
|
my-image.js
|
|
```
