title: Failed to find Server Action
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Why This Message Occurred
|
|
|
|
For security purposes, Next.js creates encrypted, non-deterministic keys (IDs) to allow for the client to reference and call the [Server Action](/docs/app/getting-started/mutating-data). These keys are periodically recalculated between builds for enhanced security.
|
|
|
|
When self-hosting your Next.js application across multiple servers, each server instance may end up with a different encryption key, leading to potential inconsistencies.
|
|
|
|
## Possible Ways to Fix It
|
|
|
|
To mitigate this, you can overwrite the encryption key using the `process.env.NEXT_SERVER_ACTIONS_ENCRYPTION_KEY` environment variable. Specifying this variable ensures that your encryption keys are persistent across builds, and all server instances use the same key.
|
|
|
|
The key must be a base64-encoded value with a valid AES key length (16, 24, or 32 bytes). Set this variable at **build time**—the key is embedded in the build output and used automatically at runtime.
|
|
|
|
If you are deploying your Next.js application to Vercel, you can use the feature [Skew Protection](https://vercel.com/docs/deployments/skew-protection) to ensure assets and functions from the previous version are still available, even after a new version is deployed.
