I love these guys so much, what they are doing is truly incredible. Immich is how I started self hosting and they’ll be the first 100 bucks I take off my first big boy paycheck.
Ever since the upgrade to 2.0 I’ve been unable to sync the photos on my phone. “Sync failed, cannot process backup” and I don’t know why.
Same for me, but without updating the backend. Probably an app bug.
Went into the app’s logs (tap your icon in the upper right corner and choose Logs)
And in my case it’s a database issue:
SqliteException(787): while executing statement, FOREIGN KEY constraint failed, constraint failed (code 787) Causing statement: INSERT INTO “remote_exif_entity” (“asset_id”, “city”, “state”, “country”, “date_time_original”, “description”, “height”, “width”, “exposure_time”, “f_number”, “file_size”, “focal_length”, “latitude”, “longitude”, “iso”, “make”, “model”, “lens”, “orientation”, “time_zone”, “rating”, “projection_type”) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)

(redacted lat/long positions a bit)
I think I’m going to reinstall. This issue is over my paygrade.
the log message contains coordinates and city names, you may want to redact it.
also this is a database issue in the app. what version is this? you should probably report it, but with a redacted log line before you publish where you live
the app version is also 2.0.0 on iOS, upgraded from the previous version.
So this isn’t a database issue on the server? But one in the app?
I upgraded from a pre 1.32 server, and needs an update to a 1.33 to 1.36 server version and opening app once before moving to server 2.0. So it could definitely be the server database end. It does an auto migrate of server database with the proper steps.
yeah, it must be an app issue. log out and reinstall, and then set up the tracked albums again and it should work.
Check Docker logs.
Apparently I have a database issue. It tries two photos and both fail with a foreign key error and then the process stops. I had deleted both photos it initially complained about, but then it complained about the next two. I fear I’m going to have to reinstall.
I self host immich and I love it. I just wish Google would leave it’s permissions alone and I wouldn’t have to interact with it or it’s permissions would be revoked.
I have this setting to prevent that
This image is hilariously unhelpful 😂 but we can work it out.
Tbh the pic was just supposed to show that such setting exists at least on my device. It is under app info (long click the app, press (i) and it’s there.
On Samsung phones I believe you can disable this
What do you mean? Google is managing the permissions for your self hosted immich?
My phone
Pretty sure you can set the options to leave permissions alone per app. At least on Graphene OS you have control of it.
And in LineageOS, so I hope it’s in all android distros. App info > turn off “Manage app if unused”
I love the fact that they produced an installation DVD.
I’m confused tho, isn’t Immich a docker image? What does installer do, install Docker as a dependency?
There’s a photo of the back of the case here, which describes how to use it: https://immich.store/products/immich-retro
So it sounds like it’s a bootable Linux image, with Immich already set up on it.
I wonder where will it store the images though
Is it possible to use Immich without Docker?
surely. check the file named Dockerfile in their git repo, it basically holds the installation instructions.

I run it with Yunohost.
Should be, but why?
If they’re like me, I get the why.
When I started out, docker just seemed like more of a complication. I wanted to just run things on the local system without having to learn something else.
Docker makes it nice in that there are no dependencies conflicts and things just work. Plus, removal is easy an leaves no trace.
When I first learned about docker I was sure it was a scam. It sounded too good to be true. It’s literally the meme it only works on my computer so we’ll ship your computer!
It’s awesome! And still feels like magic!
There’s no reason there wouldn’t be a possibility. Maybe more effort, but simply duplicate what it does. Or launch in Docker and analyze how it’s done, then reproduce.
I wish they would just mirror !futo@peertube.futo.org already
I know what futo is, but I don’t understand what you’re asking for here?
They have a PeerTube instance but they don’t mirror it. They must be uploading them manually for some reason, so they’re delayed.
Coincidentally I set up Immich yesterday without even knowing this happened!
This is huge! Been wanting to spin up immich for a good while and this will defo put it higher on my todo list!
Still container crutches?
What’s the problem with containers?

Ami having a stroke? Are you having a stroke? What the hell is going on?
Lol sometimes it feels like that here :)
Have you tried looking up the term yourself?
Have you tried just explaining when you use jargon? If you don’t understand the term enough to explain it, I get it. That’s how I am with the laws of thermodynamics. But, no reason to be hostile about knowing the term and not the definition.
