title: Resolving "app/ Static to Dynamic Error" in Next.js
description: This document explains the "app/ Static to Dynamic Error" in Next.js and provides potential solutions to resolve it.
---
## Why This Error Occurred
The "`app/` Static to Dynamic Error" happens when one of your routes in the `app/` directory is initially generated statically at build time, but during runtime it attempts to use dynamic server values (such as `cookies` or `headers`) either for a fallback path or while a path is being revalidated.
Currently, Next.js does not support switching between static and dynamic types during runtime, so the system throws an error.
## Possible Ways to Fix It
To resolve this issue, you have two main options:
1. Prevent the conditional use of dynamic server values that may cause the static/dynamic mode of the page to differ between build time and runtime. This ensures consistency in the rendering mode of your page.
2. Leverage the `dynamic` export to control the handling of your page. If you want to ensure your page is always handled statically, regardless of the usage of dynamic server values, you can use `export const dynamic = 'force-static'`. Conversely, if you prefer your page to always be dynamic, you can use `export const dynamic = 'force-dynamic'`, and your page won't attempt to be statically generated.
