I set up Immich on a spare mini PC running Linux Mint with a spare external HDD to store the library. Used Docker compose as recommended on the website. Everything was working great last night. Then this morning I decided to move the mini PC to a more permanent location. I powered down and moved it. When everything restarted though I discovered that I was unable to c9nnect to the immich server. I went onto the mini PC and the local host and all it says is, "connection was reset." I have tried restarting docker from terminal several times and it says the immich services are running. I still cannot connect to the server though. What can I do to fix this?

I can’t help, just chiming in to say that I’ve also had that experience with Immich. It’s the one service I’ve used that has somehow managed to break itself multiple times like this.

No idea how it happens, I don’t do anything weird with the setup and it just breaks. I’d heard that feedback from other people too but didn’t believe it until it happened to me. It’s been a few months so maybe I’ll try again, I’m just not too happy importing hundreds of gigs of photos multiple times.

So yea just… you’re not alone, good luck.
