Expected behavior
I need to know the specific cause and how to prevent the error from happening in the future.
Reproduction steps
Error 500 occurs for a period of time, then operates normally.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the Amplify Hosting Frontend builds entry point, the Next.js 14.2.3 App Router context, and the supplied Build Settings and log output. Compare the transient 500 period with normal operation, focusing on the reported read-only filesystem failures for .next, node_modules, public, and application paths. Done means identifying the specific cause and documenting a verified way to prevent recurrence.
