Truenas Immich is now very old
Hi guys,
I'm running Immich within TrueNas Dragonfish-24.04.2.3.
I've left it running since installation, and now with this latest update I noticed that I'm missing a lot of assets on iOS.
I noticed that my version on Truenas is 1.119.1.
TrueNas Has never pinged me about a new version to update to.
Is there any reccomendation to get up to date from this point?

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.We do not maintain the TrueNAS release and I suspect you will need to upgrade your TrueNAS version before you can get any further.
I know it's not maitained by Immich devs that's ok, I was wondering if anybody had gone through the same problem.
But now the issue is a tad different. I went through the update train for the truenas versions and now all the apps I had are gone.
I was trying to search through the filesystem for config data I could backup manually like DB and conf files for immich but it seems the directories are empty

Missing apps after upgrade 24.10
Yes - revert back to Dragonfish whilst you work out what to do with your apps. In short, up to Dragonfish apps were run by Kubernetes/Helm. In ElectricEel, apps are now Docker. If your apps are TrueNAS Charts (i.e. by iX) they should migrate automatically from Helm to Docker when you upgrade. If your apps are TrueCharts or self-generated, you...
Unfortunately the usual fixes for that didn't work
I'm going through the process of reinstalling the apps I had including Immich
Because I created custom datasets for Immich I still have all the data fortunately
I'll just have to figure out how to import everything into the new isntance again
I guess I'l just wait 🙂
If you had custom dataset, you "simply" need to
1) Migrate to the new data structure used by Truenas
2) Start your new Immich instance pointing to these datasets
3) Convert the app to a custom app in order to upgrade to v1.132/v1.133 first (so Immich can perform the migration)
4) You might have to change password use by Immich
5) (Optionnal) Remove the custom app and install Immich again, pointing to the datasets
Or I think that is what you did, create a brand new Immich and import everything back with immmich-go or other
Exactly what I did yes
It's going to take a few hours to import what I already had in the uploads dataset
Only problem I'm seeing at the moment is that it's going to duplicate the used storage
Did you not recreate new datasets?
If you created new ones, you should be able to delete the "old" ones when everything is back in order
No, I kept the exact same dataset structure I had
Upgraded Truenas from Dragonfish -> Elecrtriceel -> Fangtooth
Deleted the contents of pgData (I don't remember the password I had set so it's pointless)
Installed Immich again
Pointed to the existing datasets that already contained the media
Then I just executed the import with docker run pointing to it's own dataset
My hope was that it would "recognize" the files and just generate the thumbnails
But it looks like it's duplicating them from the way the used size is growing on the dataset
Although I haven't looked into the filesystem itself yet to see if that's really what's happening
If it is, and this new version uses a different folder structure to organize the media, then it's not too big of an issue, I'll just delete the old directories, if it's doing something different then...I'll have to figure it out 😅
You could have kept everything though
Well now it's too late
pgData password could have been changed (already healped multple people with that)
But yeah, you should definitely "start fresh" (Follow the guide on Immich docs) so you'll have a clean stuff
I will eventually do it "properly"
I plan on moving to debian and just do everything myself
setup the volumes/smb shares and setup a proper docker environment for the applications
For now, at least good news I guess..
This import seems to be using a nested upload folder
the 2 bottom folders is where my media resided until now, and it seems that it's being copied over to the other upload directory which is growing in real time
after I'll just delete the 2 bottom directories and get back the space
Yeah, you pointed Immich to your old dataset, but the structure in TrueNAS changed so this lead up to this
Well, as long as it works for you and that nothing is missing I guess that is fine
After this is done I'll draw up a plan to move this to debian
That'll take it's own time definitely
Thank you for the help @Xiticks much appreciated
Well no problem, even though you figured out something on your own 🙂
Good luck for your migration 😄
