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.Assets in the external library are also used for facial recognition, so if it's not working the jobs are either still running or broken.
Check the admin menu for the progress on the jobs, check the logs for any errors.
i will check this, for a strange reason the task is working but my server don't move an inch
The job will queue faces for grouping and only when there are nomore pictures to be scanned will it start grouping everything
job pending i will wait
The bottom one will remain pending until the top one is done
I already tried yesterday but nothing appears but I will let it finish
Definitely check the logs if you already tried this before
i'm a bit late but thanks for helping me ! actually it was just that my library was too big and crashing so I imported everything with immich-go
