Cannot access external library
Hello, I've just installed immich and I am trying to add an external library with some original photos. I have mapped the volumes in both server and microservices containers, added the external library from the UI but I see no photo. My container it's looking like this:
immich-server:
container_name: immich_server
image: ghcr.io/immich-app/immich-server:${IMMICH_VERSION:-release}
command: ["start.sh", "immich"]
volumes:
- ${UPLOAD_LOCATION}:/usr/src/app/upload
- /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
- /media/Photos:/usr/src/app/Photos:ro
env_file:
- .env
depends_on:
- redis
- database
- typesense
restart: always
I have scanned the library. Of course I have many photos inside /media/Photos but it seems that immich cannot use it or access these files
