Issues with database.. I think
Hi, relatively new to immich and loving it so far. Since Monday I've been having major issues, I can't upload, and many files have become inaccessible.
- When I try to upload, usually two will 'succeed' and the remainder all fail.
- Those that 'succeed' will show up as 'Error Loading Image' and are not actually accessible.
There are also lots of other quirks, random images that won't load, image metadata that I can't edit, etc.
Today (with some assistance) I managed to roll the server back to a backup from before the issues cropped up, but unfortunately they persist. Any ideas?
