change media location

🚧SetupUsage🗄️Server
Hello, i'm new to immich, have just installed it on proxmox via github helper scripts.
Via proxmox, i've added a mount point to it that basically allows immich to have mounted my NAS.
but i don't know which is the correct procedure to change default media location, as for now, once installed i've changed in the .env file the variable IMMICH_MEDIA_LOCATION to my nas, and then rebooted and registered the admin account.
but from what i've read from immich server commans , there is a proper way to do it by issuing immich-admin change-media-location, unfortunatelly the commands fails in my installation, it just says can someone help me???

the error message i got:
root@immich:/opt/immich/source/server/bin# ./immich-admin change-media-location
