Setting up immich for first time and the immich_server container freezes my entire VM
I always planned for these VMs to be able to be nuked while easily saving all my data, so hey maybe this will just turn into an earlier lesson on that than I intended!

oh duh, sure
I still tried it a couple times outside portainer though, through docker compose- the exact same way I did it on the second VM- so it just doesn't feel like it would be portainer, unless it messed something up from the very beginning that docker compose then used or was affected by. I made brand-new directories in a different location and everything

I can't tell anything that would be different between the two, other than the second VM pulling a lot of new files

I guess a last question- do you think there's any chance I get it working on my first VM?

fantastic, I have a clear course of action then. I'll start tomorrow's tinkering with that. I'd do it now but it's like a 5 step process to fumble my way through lmao, before I even touch docker

and yeah thanks even more man, this is at least proof it works- and on a vm from the same ISO as my main one. So now I feel a bit committed to making that work, but I probably won

Setting up immich for first time and the immich_server container freezes my entire VM
sorry it took me a good 5 minutes to get what you meant, I've been up for 20 hours lol
so like, shut down the containers, edit the .whatever file to change the upload location somewhere networked as a test, and then.... reset the database folder?
Reset it as in rm -f it and remake it, then start the containers again?

because I'm burnt out :p but if you insist!
I did it again through proper docker compose on another debian vm I made a couple weeks ago and have barely touched
it's a very different looking process now that I hit docker compuse up -d
It's spending a lot of time pulling things for each of the containers

Is this the kind of issue that, if it were an issue with the actual images rather than just my specific system, it would be widely known by now?
