Prisma Client could not locate the Query Engine for runtime "rhel-openssl-3.0.x" error on deployment

Prisma works locally and I can invoke my server actions without any problem. However, when I deploy, I get

Unhandled Rejection: Error [PrismaClientInitializationError]: Prisma Client could not locate the Query Engine for runtime "rhel-openssl-3.0.x".

We detected that you are using Next.js, learn how to fix this: https://pris.ly/d/engine-not-found-nextjs.

This is likely caused by a bundler that has not copied "libquery_engine-rhel-openssl-3.0.x.so.node" next to the resulting bundle.
Ensure that "libquery_engine-rhel-openssl-3.0.x.so.node" has been copied next to the bundle or in "generated/prisma".

We would appreciate if you could take the time to share some information with us.

I am deploying it to vercel and it builds without any problem.
