How do I get my Next.js app to start in an Azure App Service running ubuntu-latest?

I am trying to deploy my Next.js (SSR) on Azure.

I have a build pipeline that publishes the entire root folder (not just .next folder as for static apps)

trigger:
  - main

pool:
  vmImage: "ubuntu-latest"

# Set variables
variables:
  directory: .

steps:
  - task: NodeTool@0
    inputs:
      versionSpec: "16.x"
    displayName: "Install Node.js"

  - script: yarn
    displayName: "Install dependencies"
    workingDirectory: $(directory)
    
  - task: Cache@2
    displayName: 'Cache .next/cache'
    inputs:
      key: next | $(Agent.OS) | yarn.lock
      path: '$(System.DefaultWorkingDirectory)/.next/cache'

  - script: yarn build
    displayName: "Build for production"
    workingDirectory: $(directory)

  - task: CopyFiles@2
    displayName: "Copy files"
    inputs:
      sourceFolder: "$(directory)"
      Contents: "**/*"
      TargetFolder: "$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)"
      cleanTargetFolder: true

  - task: ArchiveFiles@2
    displayName: "Archive files"
    inputs:
      rootFolderOrFile: "$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)"
      includeRootFolder: false
      archiveType: zip
      archiveFile: $(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)/$(Build.BuildId).zip
      replaceExistingArchive: true

  - task: PublishBuildArtifacts@1
    displayName: "Publish build artifacts"
    inputs:
      pathtoPublish: $(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)/$(Build.BuildId).zip

I also have a file ecosystem.config.js in project root folder with contents (as described in this answer)

module.exports = {
  apps: [
    {
      name: "app-name",
      script: "./node_modules/.bin/next",
      args: "start -p " + (process.env.PORT || 3000),
      watch: false,
      autorestart: true,
    },
  ],
};

As mentioned the build pipeline publishes the entire root folder as a .zip artifact for the release pipeline.

I have a release pipeline that deploys the artifact to the App Service and runs the startup command (from the same answer as before and Microsoft docs)

pm2 start /home/site/wwwroot/ecosystem.config.js --no-daemon

package.json scripts section

"scripts": {
  "dev": "next dev",
  "build": "next build",
  "start": "next start",
  "lint": "next lint"
}

I can see that both build and release pipelines complete successfully and I can see the files from the root project folder are located in /home/site/wwwroot, but when I go to the site all I get is

Site error message

The link leading to diagnostic resources doesn't grant much insight, but if I check the logs for the docker container in the App Service I see
