Middleware can't detect image requests #68217

To Reproduce Start the application in dev mode (npm run dev) Check for the console to see if middleware pathname _next/image exist Current vs. Expected behavior After running the application I expected to see a log message that shows image requests but only pathnames listed is;

⚠️ /vercel.svg ⚠️ /_next/static/css/app/layout.css ⚠️ /_next/static/chunks/webpack.js ⚠️ /next.svg ⚠️ /_next/static/chunks/main-app.js ⚠️ /_next/static/chunks/app-pages-internals.js ⚠️ /_next/static/chunks/app/page.js ⚠️ /favicon.ico

/_next/image is missing

Provide environment information Operating System: Platform: win32 Arch: x64 Version: Windows 11 Pro Binaries: Node: 20.11.1 npm: 10.2.4 Yarn: N/A pnpm: N/A Relevant packages: next: 14.2.5 react: ^18 react-dom: ^18 Which area(s) are affected? (Select all that apply) Image (next/image), Middleware

Which stage(s) are affected? (Select all that apply) next dev (local), next build (local), next start (local)

Additional context I also tried to add matcher for the image path and also try to add it to config file as image path but none of them resolve the issue.
