Bulk Import stops unexpectedly
I am trying to use the bulk import to move my photos from photoprism to immich, but it "failes?" after some time.

This appears at the same time in docker:
it is a duplication file so it won't be uploaded
So it is normal, that is will just exit the whole upload?
No, the CLI says a total of 1 assets will be uploaded
so it only perform the uploading of that 1 file
Is there a success message after it finishes?
not at the moment 😛 we are working on rewriting the CLI to make it more user friendly though
Because it won't stop trying to upload this one file. It always says it is going to upload one file.
yeah we haven't implemented client side hashing, and the CLI is stateless so when it checks with the server and see the combination of filename and file size is not in the database it queues the file to be upload. Then upon uploading to the server, the hash of the file is calculated and it appears there is a different file under different name has the same file content. So it rejects this file
Thanks for your answer. If the CLI exits it means it has sucessfully uploaded every file. If there is an error it would say something right?
Yes
And why is it that it only finds 11k uploads in 14k files?
because you might have some files format that the CLI is filtering out. For example, raws format
We haven't updated the CLI to match with the server in term of supporting files yet

Current supported file on CLI
Current supported files on the server

we will need to update the CLI to match with this 😄
Ok, thanks for your support! This project is really nice (:
