mount

Hi, I'm trying to setup the immich server on my old laptop running Ubuntu 24.04
My .env file with config

$ cat .env

My docker-compose.yaml with bind setup

But there is no file created into the

/data/wd/immich

/data/wd/immich

/data/wd/immich

/data/wd/immich
I tried to exec to the docker and see there are files created inside

/usr/src/app/upload

/usr/src/app/upload

What does docker inspect immich_serverdocker inspect immich_server output?

hdinguyenOP•12/5/24, 10:27 AM

Here is the log:

Questionario•12/5/24, 10:33 AM

maybe your bind mount has permission issues?
can you manually create a file in that directory when you exec into the container?

Questionario•12/5/24, 10:36 AM

docker exec immich_server touch /usr/src/app/upload/findme
then
docker exec immich_server ls -artlsh /usr/src/app/upload

docker logs immich_server did not show anything pointing to an issue here?

Mraedis•12/5/24, 10:49 AM

Just mkdir /data/wd/immichmkdir /data/wd/immich yourself and chown it to the docker user?

MMraedis Just `mkdir /data/wd/immich` yourself and chown it to the docker user? 👀

hdinguyenOP•12/5/24, 11:26 AM

Yes the current setup same as your idea. I already have the

/data/wd/immich

/data/wd/immich

the immich folder is owner by the user who run docker-compose

Questionario•12/5/24, 11:28 AM

and these created directories do not reflect on your actual filesystem or what is the issue?

Questionario•12/5/24, 11:29 AM

you do have to upload something for those folders to be filled, you should be fine if they were auto-created (PS: you can delete the findme file, that was only a test to check if you can find the file on your actual filesystem afterwards)

Mraedis•12/5/24, 11:30 AM

hdinguyenOP•12/5/24, 11:34 AM

My issue is I bind the upload folder to the /data/wd/immich to benefit the big volume of the external driver, but seems the server not use that folder so the Storage space is only 57Gb so far (attach photo). I tried to upload the new file and nothing appear in the /data/wd/immich

Questionario•12/5/24, 11:35 AM

it always shows the space of where immich is installed i believe, not of the mount

MMraedis not the user, the docker user

hdinguyenOP•12/5/24, 11:35 AM

But if there is any issue with the write permission I do think should some thing error showing while I tried to upload new file.

Questionario•12/5/24, 11:36 AM

yes

Questionario•12/5/24, 11:36 AM

if this is your only issue, then you dont have an actual problem but you can open a feature request

Questionario•12/5/24, 11:37 AM

mhh, wait

hdinguyenOP•12/5/24, 11:37 AM

But no file created in /data/wd/immich is the problem or not ?

Questionario•12/5/24, 11:38 AM

there is no file created there?

Questionario•12/5/24, 11:38 AM

i just checked my immich and it shows me the storage spage of the upload location

hdinguyenOP•12/5/24, 11:40 AM

Let me try to mount to another folder within the storage of OS then if there is a file here I may try to check the external driver

Questionario•12/5/24, 11:40 AM

nvm, maybe it is the size of my external library

Questionario•12/5/24, 11:40 AM

but if files get created and you can upload files

hdinguyenOP•12/5/24, 11:40 AM

Thanks @Questionario for help

Questionario•12/5/24, 11:40 AM

there shouldnt be an issue

Questionario•12/5/24, 11:41 AM

so files do not get created?

hdinguyenOP•12/5/24, 11:41 AM

Even now the file not created on the host the photo I uploaded still here

Questionario•12/5/24, 11:41 AM

those folders are not on your actual drive?

Questionario•12/5/24, 11:42 AM

the findme file was not created on your actual drive?

Questionario•12/5/24, 11:42 AM

ls -artlsh /data/wd/immich/ls -artlsh /data/wd/immich/
what does that show on your host?

hdinguyenOP•12/5/24, 11:44 AM

Nothing

hdinguyenOP•12/5/24, 11:44 AM

wait iss that nguyenh:nguyenh doesn't have the write permission here ?

hdinguyenOP•12/5/24, 11:50 AM

Hi @Questionario success now. My appologies to spent your time because of my stupid operation

Questionario•12/5/24, 11:50 AM

you changed permissions/owner I guess?

Mraedis•12/5/24, 11:55 AM

user does, groep doesn't
