Runtime error setting up immich machine learning
I am running proxmox and trying to install immich on a docker. I encounter a problem on immich-machine-learning.
after running "docker compose logs -f" it keeps going to an event loop
This is my compose.yaml:
immich-machine-learning:
container_name: immich_machine_learning
# For hardware acceleration, add one of -[armnn, cuda, rocm, openvino, rknn] to the image tag.
# Example tag: ${IMMICH_VERSION:-release}-cuda
image: ghcr.io/immich-app/immich-machine-learning:release
# extends: # uncomment this section for hardware acceleration - see https://immich.app/docs/features/ml-hardware-acceleration
# file: hwaccel.ml.yml
# service: cpu # set to one of [armnn, cuda, rocm, openvino, openvino-wsl, rknn] for accelerated inference
volumes:
- model-cache:/cache
restart: unless-stopped
healthcheck:
disable: false

Is this a VM? docker inside of proxmox or something else?
This is a docker inside of proxmox

I am using tailscale as well
what is "Inside of proxmox"
Are you running docker on the proxmox host?
Yes
That is a very bad idea for a lot of reasons, one of which is the error you see
this is my first time setting up and im following a youtube guide to run immich directly by running docker on the proxmox host using tailscale
Could you link that tutorial?
Tailscale
