Did you change anything? This error is basically saying it's not finding the .immich file in the library folder like it's expecting. Either because permissions aren't allowing immich to read, or it's missing

#

I did not change anything

#

I just upgrade the docker

#

with docker compose pull && docker compose up -d

#

it's a mess in the library folder now

#

I am trying to read each log and move the folders correctly where it's expected

#

ok I succeed to solve it but It'a mess with the folders
