Immich Server crashing
❓Question🗄️Server☑️Ready
I just recently added an external library, and during processing of the external library, the immich server crashed. Now it will not start back up, I see this in my log:
Everything has been working for months with no issues until I added this external library, what could be the issue and how can I recover it?
