Wrong upload location - how to save photos on host machine?

My .env is as follows, probably not very enlightening:

# The location where your uploaded files are stored
UPLOAD_LOCATION=/mnt/Photos/immich

# The Immich version to use. 
IMMICH_VERSION=release

# Connection secrets for postgres and typesense.
TYPESENSE_API_KEY=random-secret-key
DB_PASSWORD=postgres

# The values below this line do not need to be changed
DB_HOSTNAME=immich_postgres
DB_USERNAME=postgres
DB_DATABASE_NAME=immich

REDIS_HOSTNAME=immich_redis

# The location where your uploaded files are stored
UPLOAD_LOCATION=/mnt/Photos/immich

# The Immich version to use. 
IMMICH_VERSION=release

# Connection secrets for postgres and typesense.
TYPESENSE_API_KEY=random-secret-key
DB_PASSWORD=postgres

# The values below this line do not need to be changed
DB_HOSTNAME=immich_postgres
DB_USERNAME=postgres
DB_DATABASE_NAME=immich

REDIS_HOSTNAME=immich_redis

My yml is attached but it runs on a linux system, hence the folder names are much easier to define.

Did you use the same naming conventions in you other containers? Paths on Windows machines tend to be tricky if translated to unix paths via WSL. What do the logs say when your container tries to mount the volume/path?

Two things: What is the env-file called on your computer? .env oder env? The attachement here is listed as without the dot, whereas in the yml file it is referred to as with the dot. Second, can the container access the volume path? Try to enter the container with docker exec -it immich-server bash and cd to /usr/src/app/upload and see if there is something there and if it is identical to the folder you have mounted. If not, check the log if there is some error about the mounted folder.

Immich-cli not accepting the --album switch?

User error, the order of commands is important, first album, then recursive. Now encountering other problems but that is another thing.
