upload directory got changed
My original upload location is "/mnt/hdd/data/media/photos/immich/immich_files/upload/upload" where there is a folder for my profile which starts with 48721b69.....
When I am uploading new photo using my mobile, it is now getting created 1 step above "/mnt/hdd/data/media/photos/immich/immich_files/upload" after creating a new profile folder using 48721b69...
I did not change my .env file or docker-compose.yml file and the .env had this upload location from the beginning "UPLOAD_LOCATION=/mnt/hdd/data/media/photos/immich/immich_files"
So, what am I doing wrong?
Could there be something to do with symlink?

I was messing with LXC immich in another instance and was creating symlink for upload folder.. but I removed that lxc though
Could you
ls -la /mnt/hdd/data/media/photos/immich/immich_files/ and ls -la /mnt/hdd/data/media/photos/immich/immich_files/upload/ ?
added my docker compose and env file using pastebin
Andf inally
ls -la /mnt/hdd/data/media/photos/immich/immich_files/upload/upload
alright so it definitely used to be /upload/upload
your env file is set for /upload though
It's also badly set for encoded-video and profile for that matter
Did you backup-restore to your LXC or what did you do there?
i did a backup restore at some point.. I guess it is to do with the env file as you mentioned
both my encoded video folder and profile is empty.. I guess these are not working for me
They're not at
/mnt/hdd/data/media/photos/immich/encoded-video ?
Do you have space to duplicate the folders?
Because I think the safest way forward is to merge everythingoh sorry encoded video is correctly there but profile is empty
If I setup everything from scratch using immich go from my google photo, what is better way for setting following folders?
UPLOAD_LOCATION=/mnt/hdd/data/media/photos/immich/immich_files
THUMB_LOCATION=/mnt/immichconfig/thumbs
ENCODED_VIDEO_LOCATION=/mnt/hdd/data/media/photos/immich/encoded-video
PROFILE_LOCATION=/mnt/hdd/data/media/photos/immich/profile
Unless you've uploaded profile pictures it will be empty
You don't actually need to specify those directories if they're on the same drive
Is sufficient
upload folder is on a different drive
Did you mount it directly to the folder then?
Or do you mean UPLOAD_DIRECTORY
It can be confusing, I know
haha yes sorry I am windows user basically so my terms may be wrong
I have my hard drive mounted to /hdd in proxmox
Then I mounted /mnt to the lxc of immich-docker
So the uploads of photos go to hdd.
If I rebuild, I would now have an 'upload' folder/directory in below location as I understand:
UPLOAD_LOCATION=/mnt/hdd/data/media/photos/immich/immich_files
