Can't get external library import to work. Websocket errors?
I suspect some of the code managing strings doesn't like spaces on the web pages where you enter paths for external libraries (perhaps both admin and user pages)

Can't get external library import to work. Websocket errors?
I'm going to get rid of spaces in file names and delete and recreate users. The account seems to be in a 7 day hold before full deletion. Is there a way to do the full delete now?

Can't get external library import to work. Websocket errors?
although honestly that earlier name (when it failed) had no spaces GP_Uploaded_Digital_Family_Library but i had renamed that, and did notice in the log that it was still referring to the old filename

Can't get external library import to work. Websocket errors?
i got a new updated docker today and I wonder if that fixed a bug that was in the prior version.. I see lots of scrolling in the log file as it imports and am now finally seeing photos. So should I delete and recreate my existing users?

Can't get external library import to work. Websocket errors?
Sure. I'm using unraid so "shares" across multiple drives live under /mnt/user and i have one called /mnt/user/photo where all my photos, home videos, and now Immich main storage will live.
FOR THE DOCKER Immich's /photos directory is mapped to /mnt/user/photo/immich Immich's /import directory is mapped to /mnt/user/photo/archive (where i have many folders of family photos) and all permissions are 777 FOR THE ADMIN WEBAPP: I have created a new user and set the user external path to /import Then when I login as that user and go to Account Settings > Libraries I have left the "default library" as is and created a new one with a single import path called "/import/GP_Uploaded_Digital_Family_Library" where GP_Uploaded_Digital_Family_Library is just one of my family archive folders which on my unraid host system lives at /mnt/user/photo/archive/GP_Uploaded_Digital_Family_Library [GP is google photos so I uploaded this entire folder back when they had unlimited storage] Thanks in advance for any suggestions. I'm generally good at this sort of thing but can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Also, when I log in to the container console and cd to /import I see all the directories I want to import. chmod is 777 for all of them
