chore: bump monorepo Next.js version to 16.2.0 by AlessioGr · Pull Request #15992 · payloadcms/payload

AlessioGr · 2026-03-18T20:14:35Z

This PR does not bump the Next.js version in the templates yet. First, let's run our test suite against 16.2.0 and make sure it's fully compatible.

Existing bug - fixes cryptic JSON.parse errors thrown in server console when uploading file without file name. Instead, we get a proper 400 error

New bug - Next.js now complains if we call a server action (getFormState) with a File, so we need to strip it. This is new and was not an issue in 16.2.0-canary.90

LLMs sometimes use -g instead of --grep, which did not work previously. Not worth a separate PR

Tests all passing! That is encouraging.
