Hi @SaaikaHatak. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
Based on the information provided in the knowledge sources, I can offer some insights and potential solutions for the 503 error you're experiencing with Nuxt Image and static images. This issue is indeed related to IPX, which is the default image optimization provider for Nuxt Image.
Here are a few potential fixes and workarounds:
1. Ensure you're using the correct provider:
If you're generating a static site using
nuxt generate
, make sure you're using the ipxStatic
provider instead of the default ipx
. This is automatically set when using a static Nitro preset according to the documentation (https://image.nuxt.com/get-started/configuration#provider).
2. Pre-render routes:
If you have disabled server-side rendering (ssr: false
), you can pre-render image routes to avoid optimization issues during static generation. Add the following to your nuxt.config.ts
:

3. Check image directory configuration:
Ensure that your image directory is correctly configured. By default, Nuxt Image looks for images in the public
directory. If your images are located elsewhere, you need to specify the directory in your nuxt.config.ts
:

4. Troubleshoot sharp
module issues:
If you're encountering errors related to the sharp
module, which IPX uses for image processing, try the following:
- Ensure you're using an LTS version of Node.js
- Upgrade to the latest version of @nuxt/image
- Recreate your lock file
- If issues persist, you may need to build sharp
from source. Check the node-gyp installation requirements (https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp#installation).

5. Consider using a different provider:
If the issues persist, you might want to consider using a different image provider. Nuxt Image supports various providers like Cloudinary, Imgix, or Netlify, which might be more stable for your use case.

If none of these solutions resolve your issue, it might be worth opening an issue on the Nuxt Image GitHub repository (https://github.com/nuxt/image/issues) with detailed information about your setup, Node.js version, and the exact error you're encountering.
