Truenas

[Professorvennie]

Anyway to get this to work with the Truenas install of Immich?

@Professorvennie Unfortunately, we don't have TrueNAS running on our servers for testing. I would recommend reaching out to the Immich community for assistance.

I managed to get it to work on TrueNAS (electric el, 24.10.0.2).
Here is my docker compose:

networks:
  immich-network:
    external: True
    name: ix-immich_default
services:
  immich-power-tools:
    env_file:
      - conf.env
    image: ghcr.io/varun-raj/immich-power-tools:latest
    networks:
      - immich-network
    ports:
      - '30042:3000'
    restart: unless-stopped

And my conf.env file:

IMMICH_URL=http://server_ip:30041
EXTERNAL_IMMICH_URL=https://external.immich.url
SECURE_COOKIE=true

DB_HOST=ix-immich-pgvecto-1
DB_PORT=5432
DB_USERNAME=immich
DB_PASSWORD=***
DB_DATABASE_NAME=immich

IMMICH_API_KEY=***

Some details about this config:

1. Add the immich-power-tools container into the same Immich network
2. To get the DB_PASSWORD: open shell window in the Immich server container and write echo $DB_PASSWORD
3. To get the IMMICH_API_KEY: https://immich.app/docs/features/command-line-interface#obtain-the-api-key

Thank you for your great post. I have been banging my head trying to get it to work on mine but I keep getting and error.

Sorry but I doesn't understand your problem. Could you provide more logs / details ?

[chocology]

I followed your guide precisely which was more or less in line with what I was attempting prior. The only difference was SECURE_COOKIE=false which i corrected.

Here is my docker-compose.yaml:-
networks:
immich-network:
external: true
name: ix-immich_default
ix-immich_default:
external: true
services:
immich-power-tools:
env_file:
- conf.env
image: ghcr.io/varun-raj/immich-power-tools:latest
networks:
- immich-network
ports:
- 30042:3000
restart: unless-stopped

When I run the container, the logs from the terminal are as below.

As you are not using the md formatting syntax your file is difficult to read but it seems that your docker compose file is not exactly the same, especially the networks part.
Mine is:

networks:
  immich-network:
    external: True
    name: ix-immich_default

Yours seems to be:

networks:
  immich-network:
    external: True
    name: ix-immich_default
  ix-immich_default:
    external: true

Just to be sure, are you running on TrueNAS 24.10.0 ?

Apart from that, I don't have any other ideas, as I don't know exactly how Immich power tools work intervaly and what this error realy means.

[chocology]

Thank you for the reply. I am using TrueNAS (electric el version 24.10.0.2).

I changed the network part to what you pasted and it is still not working with the same errors.

networks:
immich-network:
external: true
name: ix-immich_default
services:
immich-power-tools:
env_file:
- conf.env
image: ghcr.io/varun-raj/immich-power-tools:latest
networks:
- immich-network
ports:
- 30042:3000
restart: unless-stopped

The container doesn't have bash try /bin/sh.

thank you !it worked well on my machine

[chocology]

Im going crazy here. I was using Dockge and now doing it on docker compose and still struggling to figure it out.

Is your database password correct？Check it
btw，you could try portainer，im using portainer to deploy it.

[chocology]

The database password is correct. I did run echo $DB_PASSWORD to verify. Even went as far as to completely recreate the config files. I will try with Portainer. Thanks for chiming in.
