Reinstall on Synology. Been working with ChatGPT to get this to work... it just won't work. HELP!
I have been trying to get this to work all day and I keep getting close but this just cannot be fixed. I have tried every suggestion given to me over 6 hours. Do you have any idea? Thanks!

}:bansword:
looks like you have 5 immich services in your compose?
1. immich-server
2. immich-microservices (using immich-server image?)
3. immich-web (using an old immich-web image)
4. another immich-server
5. immich-machine-learning
I'd recommend following the synology guide and using the docker-compose it recommends: https://immich.app/docs/install/synology
Should result in 2 immich containers (immich-server, immich-machine-learning), and the 2 databases (postgres+redis)
Note that for the volumes, you should not edit the volume mounts directly, but edit the UPLOAD_LOCATION, DB_DATA_LOCATION environment variables in the .env file
yeah, stop following chatgpt guidance, and follow the documented procedure as pointed by CJ
