Failed to search smart ApiException: 500 Internal Server Error
My setup: Running Immich as an LXC container on proxmox using community script. On a mini pc with an i3, integrated gpu. I was able to setup Immich Remote Machine Learning to use my home PC's NVIDIA GPU for ML. So i have gone to admin settings on immich, added 2 url's in Machine Learning tab- 1st is my pc_ip:3003, 2nd is the default immich-machine-learning:3003. The problem does NOT take place when the home PC is on and all devices work fine with smart search. But when i switch off my PC, smart search doesnt work. So the problem ONLY happens when using the server solo. Logs after search error are in the image attached
Since the setup was done via proxmox helper scripts, I dont think there's a docker compose yaml file for immich. Which makes it confusing for me since all the queries online are resolved by going to the compose file. I added /dev/dri/card0 and renderD128 via proxmox GUI- add device passthrough
Here's the LXC conf file:

- 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 ;)

Successfully submitted, a tag has been added to inform contributors. :white_check_mark:I have tried removing my homepc_ip from immich ML settings, thinking that maybe it only looks for the first IP and gives uip. ran it solo with the server-ip in the immich ML settings but it gave the same results.
I’ve seen similar issues from others running the community script. We explicitly only support docker installs, which this is not
So we would recommend switching to a supported install, or reach out to the script team for help
Oh, that's unfortunate. I've already fully shifted to this Immich LXC though so I'm a bit hesitant to change my setup. Is there an easy way to do this?
No, there isn’t, because their deployment doesn’t align with our filesystem layout
I understand, thanks for your replies. If you seem to have any idea why it may be that way, please let me know. Because it works well when the remote ML GPU is on.
When I was trying to add the remote GPU, I had accidentally removed the /dev/dri/card0 and render128 from the conf files by adding a #. But immich search worked fine when the pc was on so I didn't notice. I noticed today when the pc wasn't on, so I reconnected the passthrough that I earlier uncommented. Still didn't work tho.
