Unable to initialize reverse geocoding: Error: timeout
Hey!
I'm trying to get immich working on my Windows machine, I'm using Docker Compose and I've gotten it to work (but not entirely.) I've uploaded all of the files I want to have, but now my server crashes and restarts every minute or so.
Here's a snippet of my log to show the exact errors: https://hastebin.skyra.pw/kezagufade.yaml
I've also changed my data base location because I'm using an NTFS file system.
That being said, here's my docker compose file: https://hastebin.skyra.pw/obizugahaw.yaml
And my .env file (password removed) https://hastebin.skyra.pw/egikojosec.ini
Thank you so much and happy New Year!

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.My hardware definitely shouldn't be an issue, the server is updated to the most recent version and any browser stuff shouldn't be applicable for this issue.

Where is that database location?
That's this, right? It's on an a sata SSD

and the images themselves are on a hard drive
wow, i think i mightve fixed it...?
the disk location was wrong, it pointed to a different file, and now that i changed it back it improted geodata properly
wow
😁
I honestly have no idea what happened because i had to move it back. But suddenly it works! So, that's good! I guess?
