Hi, I've been trying for days to add my folder inside my NAS where I have all my photos and add them to Immich, but I can't do it.

And what have you done exactly?

hot meteor
#

This is the error message

tardy cargo
#

You need to first add it to the volumes section of the immich server @hot meteor :

      - ${UPLOAD_LOCATION}:/usr/src/app/upload
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
      - '/volume1/DOCUMENTS/My images':/mnt/my_images

With this you can add the path /mnt/my_images in the immich external folder settings

Personally I would not use spaces in folder names.

hot meteor
#

I changed the name of the folder to make it more friendly
add the following code

  • ${UPLOAD_LOCATION}:/usr/src/app/upload
  • /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
  • /volume1/DOCUMENTS/Imagenes:/mnt/Imagenes

but it keeps giving me the same message

tardy cargo
#

Did you do any docker commands after changing the compose?

#

It won't pick it up automatically, you need to docker compose up -d again

hot meteor
#
  • I have restarted the /container manager/project and it doesn't work,
  • I have stopped and started docker and it doesn't work,
  • I have deleted all the folders and created a new project from container manager like this video but adding that line and it doesn't work either, I can't start the server because of this message
tardy cargo
#

/volume1/DOCUMENTS/Imagenes wouldn't happen to be inside another container would it

hot meteor
#

I'm working with a synology 420+ NAS

tardy cargo
#

Can you get a shell there?

#

If so, make sure this folder structure exists like that

hot meteor
#

what are you talking about?

tardy cargo
#

I see DOCUMENTOS

#

You put DOCUMENTS in the compose

hot meteor
#

where? sorry i'm not very familiar with docker

tardy cargo
#

YOU have put volume1/DOCUMENTS/Imagenes inside of the compose file
But your actual folder is named DOCUMENTOS, there's an 'o' at the end.

#

So just correct the typo 🙂

hot meteor
#

It's true!!

#

What a stupid mistake, I'm going to try and see if I'm lucky

Don't know, I don't use DSM

hot meteor
#

Now it works great, thanks a lot,
Now all the images are displayed without thumbnails, but I imagine that will be fixed when the scan is finished!!
thanks

tardy cargo
#

It will be until the generation job is finished, that might be some time. 😛

#

If you have a lot of images it might take half a day or more

hot meteor
#

Yes, about 70,000
I see that on the iPhone it takes a long time to upload, 10 seconds for each one

tardy cargo
#

I bet it will be faster once the processing is done
