Change folder with the picture storage on synology to synchronize with drive client
Hy i try to move the folder with the library of the user :
/volume2/docker/Immich/library/library
to
/volume2/immich/
A share folder that can be synchronise with synology drive client so i can have a automatic back up of all the picture on a computer .
SO i move all the folder to the new one .
Then i change tho compose file volume direction to that :
volumes:
- /volume2/Immich:/usr/src/app/upload - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
And now i m facing this error : microservices worker error: Error: Failed to read "<UPLOAD_LOCATION>/library/.immich - Please see https://immich.app/docs/administration/system-integrity#folder-checks for more information.", stack: Error: Failed to read "<UPLOAD_LOCATION>/library/.immich - Please see https://immich.app/docs/administration/system-integrity#folder-checks for more information." What else folder should i move to the share folder : That should be good if we can have a option to move the starage picture to a other place easly . Thank you to you everyone .

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.That suggests you either didn't move everything, or just missed out on moving the
.immich files (which are hidden and so could get ignored)Also, remember you can only one-way sync the upload/library folder
If you're looking for full synchronization then an external library is what you're looking for
Hummmm that s could be a good option so one folder on nas in external and a drive sync on the computer of this folder .
Im gone look this direction as i feel move the folder was not the best start
the picture that i save with immich app will be automatycly add in the external library ?
No. It'll be placed in the internal structure
You cannot modify the files directly (add/edit/delete), you'd need to do it though the immich ui or API. That's why sharing those folders generally doesn't make sense unless they're shared as read-only
so the option of external won t work
the idea is to save the photo from the phone to the nas . then save them in a folder and synchronisé this folder on a computer
To be clear, you cannot add an image to the internal library of immich from your pc by browsing the file system, and have immich detect it
If you delete a file from your computer from the shared space it also won't delete it from immich, but rather corrupt(?) your immich installation
no . I just use the pc as a back original file not to modify it
when I turn on the pc it s automatically synchronisé the file of my Nas witch is very easily .
I try to synchronisé the folder in the dock with Synology but it s not possible
One-way sync is no problem, that would work.
but with Synology I can t add the folder in immich docker that s the problem . it has to be a share folder
Moving the directory is perfectly fine, just make sure you delete the containers (and possibly images) when changing the compose file. The container manager doesn't always rebuild like it should
mmmmm I don t delete it . I will have a try . so I don t need to move the engine folder and upload folder normally . only the library user folder right ?
Engine folder?
You're also missing your other folders that were previously mapped in your compose file that you shared, currently you just mapped upload, not the rest
so which other folder should I move and how to map it please ,?
How are you copying the contents of the folder from one place to another?
first I copy with the command MV . but now I'm thinking to just copy and paste with the file station as I see all the files .
