Immich v1.123.0 stuck initializing
Hello!
I just upgraded immich to the newest version but it doesn't seem to be working.
I review the docker-compose file and start it. All images seem to be starting normally but immich server. All I see is the following in the logs all over again:

Please post the info the bot asked for
I'm using a stack in Portainer, so I'll try to find another way.
Let me know if you need further details
Can you get the actual database logs from the postgres log folder?
Here's the last log I could find

Can you set
IMMICH_LOG_LEVEL=verbose
and recreate the container?Sure, will do
Not much difference I'm afraid

Any memory limits?
I haven't set any. It's running in a VM with 8GB of RAM. I don't see any issue with the space either.
Never had problems with memory before.

It’s a VM not a LXC? What’s the host and guest os? Looks like Ubuntu in the guest
Ubuntu server in TrueNAS.
What version did you upgrade from?
From 1.122.2
Please do docker compose down; docker image prune -a
Likely the image got corrupted on download
That was it! Thanks for your help.
Might want to keep an eye out for why that happened if you notice other corruption
