#v1.114.0 External library does not detect files although path is recognized

Hi dear community,
I'm new to Immich and currently trying to setup external library scanning via a mount on my NAS.

Here's what I did:

  1. Mount the path to the immich-server service in compose.yaml:
    name: immich
    services:
    immich-server:
    container_name: immich_server
    image: ghcr.io/immich-app/immich-server:${IMMICH_VERSION:-release}
    volumes:

    • ${UPLOAD_LOCATION}:/usr/src/app/upload
    • /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
    • /mnt/homelab-pool/apps/minio/data/backup:/libs/backup:ro
      env_file:
    • .env
      ...
      ..

  2. Check whether the path and files are recognized in the container:
    root@d6a69b209be4:/# ls /libs/backup/Familie
    2021-07-30_17-15-14_IMG_2417.JPG 2021-07-30_17-18-22_IMG_2416.JPG 2022-09-16_20-45-03_IMG_3805.HEIC

  3. Check whether the library path is recognized by Immich (see photo)

  4. Force rescan

Result: Library keeps empty, even though there are just three photos in it.

Did I missed anything?

can you post the server logs while doing a scan?

Hi @knotty quarry , thanks for the prompt response.

here the logs of the scan (verbose):

you haven't specified any exclusion pattern?

#

and just to be clear the path Familie doesn't have any non-ASCII characters / accents?

unique slate
#

The path shouldn't contain any non-ASCII characters

#

from the container shell:

root@d6a69b209be4:/libs/backup/Familie# pwd
/libs/backup/Familie

What is the output of ls -lah /libs/backup/Familie in the container? (And perhaps also in /mnt/homelab-pool/apps/minio/data/backup/Familie ?)

I just noted that the shown filessize is strange. In the MinIO UI:

Why are your pictures a directory 🤔

#

Anyway, they are owned by root:apps on your NAS, is that what docker user runs as? Or does it have access to it?

Thanks for pointing that out @dark oar ! The files are not stored in their original format by MinIO 🤦‍♂️ Using a normal fileshare works as expected. Thanks for your help!
