Information
In order to be able to effectively help you, we need you to provide clear information to show what the problem is. The exact details needed vary per case, but here is a list of things to consider:
- Your docker-compose.yml and .env files.
- Logs from all the containers and their status (see above).
- All the troubleshooting steps you've tried so far.
- Any recent changes you've made to Immich or your system.
- Details about your system (both software/OS and hardware).
- Details about your storage (filesystems, type of disks, output of commands like fdisk -l
and df -h
).
- The version of the Immich server, mobile app, and other relevant pieces.
- Any other information that you think might be relevant.
Please paste files and logs with proper code formatting, and especially avoid blurry screenshots.
Without the right information we can't work out what the problem is. Help us help you ;)
If this ticket can be closed you can use the /close
command, and re-open it later if needed.Can you post the output of
docker inspect immich_server
?Let me know if I can provide any more info about my setup - thanks!
Yeaaa, so your root upload mount has an accidental backslash at the end
- ${UPLOAD_LOCATION}:/usr/src/app/upload\
Which means this folder is not properly mounted, and any files that aren't going into the other explicit mounts are written into the container's ephemeral filesystem. That means the upload
and library
folders
Those will have gotten lost every time the container was recreated, and it'll mean you're probably missing almost all of your original files
Which is unfortunately pretty bad newsAh, good eye. Got it. That's ok, Im not running "in production" yet. I need to look at my backup yml before I started troubleshooting to see if it was there then as well
Im not running "in production" yetGlad to hear it :P
Im back up and running - thanks!
