Hi all,

I need some help setting up Immich in Unraid. I am following the official Docker Compose Method (https://immich.app/docs/install/unraid/ .... I tried the other method and it stopped working).

I followed the instructions, and used the defaults to try getting it up before I change anything. I am starting from scratch with folders and a DB. So that should make it straightforward. However, I can't get the container running.

When I enter the IP 192.168.1.109:2283 I get an Unable to Connect message

Thank you

Log output, and config files attached.

Are you sure you wiped your DB correctly when starting over? Logs say it's trying to find an existing immich structure and not, so it can't start up

Ok, good pointer @schuhbacca ...

My DB folder already had contents. So I erased that and started from scratch again. Now working

Thanks
