I cannot see the uploaded pictures in my shared dataset
I modified the env file to change the upload location to the mp0 which is a sha4ed dataset on NFS and SMB from truenas. I ñn immich I can see the storage size is the full size of the dataset which is what I wanted but connecting to the SMB folder, none of the photos I uploaded showed up there. Restarting the cobtainer, the photos are still in immich but not in the SMB /NFS folder.

Hello, is this a LXC? We recommend using a VM
Otherwise, this isn’t an immich related issue, this is a docker bind volume / LXC problem
Hi. This is a container. Following the instructions on the git. I don't think it's an issue with the docker volume because I can see the full storage on immich.
Please run the following command:
docker run -v /mount/folder/path:/test alpine touch /test/success
use the path that you are trying to use for immich. what git are you using?
you can post your compose and env as wellWill do this and report back.
Im using the instructions on immich.app
I’m confused. Are you using LXC?
The docker and env files are exactly the same as the one in the gityub with the exception of the upload location in the .env file
UPLOAD_LOCATION=/truenasmedia
which is my shared dataset
I'm using docker in proxmox
Please share both full files
Are you using a Virtual Machine in Proxmox, or a Linux Container ...?
the command then would be
docker run -v /truenasmedia:/test alpine touch /test/successYes I will try that once i got access to the server.
Thanks!
you seem to be dodging my question, but you say
mp0 so I am 99% sure you are using a LXC not a VM, which our docs say not to useI'm not dodging questions. I might not understand it originally. I answered that it was docker in proxmox
You are running docker directly in the proxmox host? Not in a Virtual Machine or an LXC?
That's right docker in lcx
Which is not supported as Zeus said
Docker in LXC can work but issues like this are very common
I think I read it was not recommended but if thats the case. A VM with Ubuntu server no gui will be enough ?
Yes
And the pictures will be shown in the shared SMB?
As long as it's setup correctly. Many people run a VM with the media stored via the NAS, just make sure the DB is local
Yes. Got it. But I mean they will visible regardless of the user ? For instance , all photos from user 1 user 2 and user 3 will be visible to whoever has access to the folder, or see the photos encrypted once they are uploaded via immich ?
That was my original thought wh3n I couldn't see the pictures in the Nas
Immich doesn’t encrypt at all.
Ok ok
Thanks!
I'll give it a try with the VM
thanks for the help. I managed to see the files in the nfs using VM.
only thing is the new uploaded files are hashed and the filenames are different than the original ones
