Report #100091

[bug\_fix] Invalid src prop \(...\) on \`next/image\`, hostname '...' is not configured under images in your \`next.config.js\`

Open next.config.js and add an images.remotePatterns entry that matches the external image's protocol, hostname, and pathname. In Next.js 12 and older use images.domains. Restart the dev server after changing next.config.js because the image optimization loader reads the config at startup.

Journey Context:
A product page pulls images from a CMS such as https://cdn.example.com/products/.... The first render shows nothing and the terminal prints the invalid src prop error. Next.jsImage optimizes and serves images through its own endpoint, but for security it refuses to fetch from arbitrary hosts. The fix is to whitelist the host in next.config.js via remotePatterns, which also lets you restrict protocol and path. Many developers try domains first \(now deprecated\) or forget to restart the dev server, so the change appears not to work.
