Did you try to add the missing assets in the compilerOptions of the nest-cli.json?
Even before NestJs 11 we had to do it.

{
  "$schema": "https://json.schemastore.org/nest-cli",
  "collection": "@nestjs/schematics",
  "sourceRoot": "src",
  "generateOptions": {
    "baseDir": "modules"
  },
  "compilerOptions": {
    "deleteOutDir": true,
    "watchAssets": true,
    "plugins": [
      "@nestjs/swagger"
    ],
    "assets": [
      {
        "include": "modules/mail/templates",
        "outDir": "dist"
      }
    ]
  }
}

What do you mean? Take a look at Stackblitz. It is not working with 11

I've encountered the same issue since upgrading to v11. I resolved it by removing "watchAssets": true from assets.
