Jobs not processing

I've set up Immich using docker-compose.yaml and I have nginx proxy manager running to map my domain to it. I've uploaded all of my photos to it using immich-go. 51,646 photos and 3,013 videos in total.

There are a handful of thumbnails available but the rest of the items show "Error loading image"

The Extract Metadata job has started processing before, worked through all 50k+ items and gotten to zero. However, Generate Thumbnails will not start. If I click the "Missing" or "All" button then Waiting increments by 1 but no job starts. If I refresh the page, Waiting resets to 0.

Even weirder - after restarting the docker container (docker compose down, docker compose up), Extract Metadata has started again and shows that it has 109,120 items to process and has started all over again.

Does anyone have any ideas what's happening here please?

TIA

Log after I click All or Missing on thumbnails (no errors):
