No data/photos appearing in new immich setup through portainer on Asustor AS5404T
thanks all. Im really coming from a basic level of knowledge here . Can I define the external folder location ( preexisting on my NAS) in the docker-compose.yml file by placing
/volume1/storage/Photos:/usr/src/app/external:ro
under volumes
And that the left side of the colon is the host path, ) where the photos would be on your computer.) and the The right side is the container path.

Im happy to admit that I feel way out of my depth trying to setup immich! Im at it 2 days, Ive no idea what Im doing, and its getting worse not better.😭
should the .env file state: UPLOAD_LOCATION=//volume1/storage/Photos:/usr/src/app/external:ro Ive got this far but just cannot figure out HOW to get the application to index my photos folder on my NAS. It shouldnt be this hard , should it?

Thanks for this. I followed these steps literally however if I Enter /usr/src/app/external as the path and click Add, as per instructions I get a validation error but my external folder location /volume1/storage/Photos , still detects nothing when I scan and when I check jobs I see all zeros for Active jobs in Library.
Am I missing something very obvious?

Thanks! by "edit the environment variables " I mean, defining the .env file , which I assume I have to do ?.
Where would I learn how to use an external library to point at existing photos. I did see the https://immich.app/docs/features/libraries but its just way over my head as a noob.
