Restoring backup
I'm restoring backup after crashing my pc. I recreated the compose file but am missing the .env file
compose has the following section:
volumes: - ${UPLOAD_LOCATION}:/usr/src/app/upload - ${EXTERNAL_PATH}:/usr/src/app/external What should the following be? UPLOAD_LOCATION=? EXTERNAL_PATH=? My file dir looks like this under /home: /immich /backup /library / 577...uuid / admin /Upload
