my .env is


# The location where your uploaded files are stored
UPLOAD_LOCATION=/home/dockeruser/rowan_files
# The location where your database files are stored
DB_DATA_LOCATION=./postgres

# To set a timezone, uncomment the next line and change Etc/UTC to a TZ identifier from this list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones#List
TZ=Europe/London

# The Immich version to use. You can pin this to a specific version like "v1.71.0"
IMMICH_VERSION=release

# Connection secret for postgres. You should change it to a random password
# Please use only the characters `A-Za-z0-9`, without special characters or spaces
DB_PASSWORD=<redacted>

This is an alpine host issue I believe

fluid hollow
#

fixable or nah?

fervent glade
#

I don’t think so, you can google it tho it’s a known thing if I remember correctly

#

Maybe you can install the TZ package, not sure

#

But not an immich issue

fluid hollow
#

google what the output from docker compose up -d?

fervent glade
#

No, the issue with alpine containers and time zones

#

But tbh if you don’t already know how to handle this I would highly recommend a Linux VM

#

Or at minimum a Debian LXC but we do not officially support LXC
