So I'm new to this immich after hearing about that is a clean and simliar alternative to google photos and I've been able to setup a immich server through docker desktop and I've even been able to upload a 100+ photos already using the CLI process. However, when trying to access my immich server from a different device like the mobile app I get an error of "Socket operation failed: POST /oauth/config" with the url that I have inputed as the "http://server ip address:2283/api" any help would be great

Are you accessing over local ip or dns?

#

nevermind I was able to resolve the problem by going into my server and seeing that my network setting was set to private instead of public

Ah i see

#

Sounds good!

#

Enjoy

thanks I can't wait to try it on other devices

well I used windows with docker desktop to setup immich

inner bane
#

That's also my set up

#

and in windows if you go to your network settings you can change it from private to public

inner bane
#

aah ok. I see I'm on Public already so must be some other issue. I've raised it on Github and hopeful someone will help

vague loom
#

well then best of luck to resolving your issue

inner bane

thanks for getting back

I guess one thing to note is that whenever you connect to your immich server from another machine in a lan use the private ip address of the machine in which immich is hosted on followed by :2283

I think i'm doing that. But since I'm not tech savy, let me confirm that its the same ip when I do ipconfig on command prompt?

yeah it should be the ip that you see in ipconfig
