[nuxt] Cannot load payload /_payload.json

I just created a brand new Nuxt project using

npx nuxi@latest init

npx nuxi@latest init

. I set up routing by adding

<NuxtPage />

<NuxtPage />

app.vue

app.vue

and creating

pages/index.vue

pages/index.vue

. Then I made a static export using

npm run generate

npm run generate

and finally I serve it using

npx serve .output/public

npx serve .output/public

.

I am getting the following error in my browser's console:

[nuxt] Cannot load payload  /hello/_payload.json SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data

[nuxt] Cannot load payload  /hello/_payload.json SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data

Why is Nuxt is trying to load a non-existent JSON file? Did I find a bug already?
