External Library #SynologyNAS using Container Manager app.

Dear #help-desk-support #immich

First of all, thank you for developing such a great application to preserve memories through photos and videos.

I recently purchased a $100 server and your application to support your hard work and future updates — though it’s a small contribution, it’s my way of appreciating your efforts.

Now, regarding the issue I’m facing — it might not actually be a system issue, but rather something I’m missing in the setup process. I was previously using Synology Photos but wasn’t satisfied with its performance, so I decided to switch to IMMICH.

While trying to add my existing photo library (previously used by Synology Photos) and assign it to the IMMICH yml configuration file, I encountered the following error:

“1 path failed validation.

I carefully followed the setup instructions and also watched several guide videos on YouTube, but I couldn’t get it to work.

Please note that I’m not an IT expert, so understanding the technical details or coding configurations is a bit challenging for me. I would greatly appreciate your guidance on how to correctly link my existing library folder to IMMICH.

Thank you once again for your great work and looking forward to your kind support and prompt response.

Best regards,
