Initial Setup - Getting "microservices worker error: PostgresError: password authentication failed"
Been stuck on this for a few hours now, not sure where exactly I'm going wrong.
Initially getting an error with redis already being in use.
Updated it to immich_redis and was able to get past that.
Now I'm running into an issue with the Postgress password authentication.
I have deleted the immich volume as well, since I saw those were persistent.
I have manually set the password, as shown in the screenshots.
Any help is appreciated!

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.you are missing the .env file in your container, what platform are you trying to install this?
I'm using docker compose.
ENV file is pulling the one from the main docker folder, where the overall compose file is being called from.
I bashed in and was able to confirm the postgres was able to properly pull the correct password as well.
ok, add the following line to immich_server and machine learning (not sure why is missing in your setup)
you'll also need to set REDIS_HOSTNAME=immich_redis since you changed the name (honestly there's no reason to change the service name)
or just use the standard compose file https://github.com/immich-app/immich/releases/latest/download/docker-compose.yml
I am a fool, removed the env file because I thought it was automatically pulling from where it called.
My setup has the env file and the immich.yml file in different locations.
Updated that and we are good to go.
You're a legend.
