Immich jobs are active but don't progress - logs show "no such file or directory"
Logs from all Immich containers from Loki

Immich was working fine until this issue started after I used immich-go to import a Google Takeout of my photos in zip format
Immich-go was able to upload new assets and worked as normal, but after it finished I just see stuck jobs in the UI and no thumbnail for some images (nor do they load)
Has anyone else come across this issue? I've ruled out a permissions issue - I assume it's just corrupt files but how could they have been uploaded if they were?

@Zack is this a storage template bug?
This is what the jobs UI shows - every other job is at 0 and not running


I've been running immich for a good while as well - never had issues with the upgrades
i use ansible for my config - this is my compose
https://pastebin.com/raw/qRbikhzg
assuming this is a bug, how can i work around it? i assume i can delete the images on disk but im not sure about DB refs to it
i've looked more into my config and I'm missing some env vars
i've started again with a clean env but I have a snapshot of the old env I can easily roll back to for testing
Hmmm, not sure, would need to look more at it
