Admin doesn't work in production

[pine token]

Admin route does not work with the application in production hosted on vercel. I'm using custom-server. Locally it works, in prod it doesn't.

Hello @pine token ! Good morning

When setting up payload to be on a different url, like /payload

there is some additional configuration

check out: https://nouance.io/articles/how-to-host-payloadcms-on-a-subdomain-and-subpath-with-nginx

Which has some solid information about payload base route changes

If you still need help after, let us know!

Helloo. hmm, understood. I also tested it without this additional configuration that I made "/payload", and it still wasn't working.

[pine token]

can you help me?

[harsh field]

Good morning!

Hmmm

@pine token Could you please give me a little context for the issue - happy to help!

For instance, is this based on a template or the default installation of payload?

I just cloned the official repo and tried to upload the custom-server on vercel. But the admin route doesn't work.

[harsh field]

hmm

Can you share some of the errors youre getting?

Admin route not working generally means an initial config issue

@pine token what repo?

[pine token]

https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/master/examples/custom-server

I just cloned and tried to climb the vercel. I don't know if I need to do any additional configuration for this to work

[summer holly]

Custom servers cannot be deployed on Vercel, Vercel is serverless. We do have a repo that will deploy serverless: https://github.com/payloadcms/next-payload-demo

Please read the "Known gotchas" in the README though.
