"Bad request" upload from Android immich app
I just set up immich according to the docs via portainer. ( I changed all the .env to stack.env)
the env is like following
I followed the post for post install, I added admin and user, I downloaded the phone app and set up albums for upload.
Now the thing is that it puts the pictures in the upload folder, but somehow the immich server responds with failure, so the phone gets "Bad Request" into all the uploads, even though it uploaded the picture in the uploads folder. Because the phone then thinks it didnt upload, it tries again it tries to upload it again. This continues indefinitely and the immich server will not see uploaded pictures, just aswell as the phone.
The main problem seems to be that the server responds with "Bad request" (I guess 400 http code).
Since I followed the exact procedure of the docs I cannot find the error.
I set http://192.168.1.2:2283/api as the URL via the phone aswell as without the /api.
uploading from browser in Desktop worked though, so is there a problem with the app?

I don't think you need to change this at all
please keep it as defaultOkay will do but I changed it only after the same thing happened without it being vhangedt
and uploading from Firefox via desktop works
I don't fully understand can you elaborate?
This change was made after it already didnt work so I dont think this is what caused it. I am changing it back right now though
and will test one more time

Can you check the server/microservices log?
okay
everything looks ok on the server
yes, I really dont get why my phone receives the bad request response though then
what is the microservices log?
wasnt it what I already sent?
that was the server I believe
ah sorry that was microservices
what was the server log?
immich_web?
immich-server
didnt see it first. here it is
hmm nothing abnormal either
what is the log on the mobile app says?
as I said from the browser it seems to work, from desktop, so maybe its the phone?
yeah
this is strange error
what version of the mobile app are you on?
I used f droid .. 1.43.0
hmm
we are on 1.54
only 11 version later
š
oh..
so I need to download from the play store?
I f-droid just get updated
can you check?
yes give me a second
it updates now
I will try now
since Immich is still in development, we can only guarantee that the same version of mobile and server would work reliably
but just fyi the app said "client and server are up to date"
when I had 1.43.0
so idk if the check for that went correctly
yeah that is a bug š
sorry about that confusion
If it said i need to update I would have done for sure š
its an awesome app btw!
thanks man I appreciate it!
okay so it works now
man I can't type tonight
sorry for the bad gramma
so conclusion:
1) Great app, I cannot understand how something so awesome can be done by so few people
2) my constructive criticism would be to make the check for versions more stable and update f droid šš
np
thank you, I will keep this in mind and make the checking for version more robust
my grammar is bad too most of the time
thanks a lot for your time
No thank you for helping out!
enjoy and if you encouter anything weird, let me know
will do for sure :). alright see you
