The bug

Immich Server is unable to start on Pi5 because Typesense will not start.

Typesense requires a 4k page size but Rasberry Pi 5 on Debian 12 Bookworm uses 16k page size.

The issue is better described here: https://github.com/typesense/typesense/issues/1351
Including a Fix from Typsense dev kishorenc in the form of this custom build: https://dl.typesense.org/debug/0.26.0.rcjemalloc1/typesense-server-0.26.0.rcjemalloc1-linux-arm64.tar.gz

I'm not sure how to load an image directly from a tar.gz file... but I was wondering if the contents of it can be added to the Immich docker-compose.yml to solve this issue for arm64 users on Rasberry pi 5.

The OS that Immich Server is running on

1.  Download docker-compose.yml and .env 
2.  Edit .env as discussed in install guide
3.  Run Docker Compose Up -d
4.  check logs...
5.  immich server logs, the below keeps repeating
-Request #1701582572872: Request to Node 0 failed due to "EAI_AGAIN getaddrinfo EAI_AGAIN typesense"
-Request #1701582572872: Sleeping for 4s and then retrying request...
6.  typesense server logs,  below keeps repeating
-<jemalloc>: Unsupported system page size
-<jemalloc>: Unsupported system page size
-terminate called without an active exception

Additional information

please reach out if you need anything else, I'm not sure what else to provide since the rasberry pi 5 is still so new. Unable to access the web page as immich server keeps restarting due to dependency on typesense.

Also it's my first time reporting an issue so I hope I followed the guidelines correctly

For anyone trying Immich on the RPi 5, try follow these steps:

Get into the https://github.com/typesense/typesense/issues/1351 issue and get the build published by the typesense dev.

Follow these steps I described on that same issue to build a docker image from the given build.

Use that image to deploy Immich:

typesense:
    container_name: immich_typesense
-   image: typesense/typesense:0.24.1@sha256:9bcff2b829f12074426ca044b56160ca9d777a0c488303469143dd9f8259d4dd
+   image: custom/image_name

As the issue is marked completed and closed, does it mean following https://immich.app/docs/install/requirements/ on a RPi5 today will work without any custom step?

Yes, it works, recent immich versions no longer depend on typesense

Super, thanks for the clarification.

PS: I asked due to the "2 of 3 tasks" at the top of the issue.

Note to people who might ask "why" bother with a Pi 5 in the first place, consider remote machine learning as described in https://immich.app/docs/guides/remote-machine-learning/

I believe it's a wonderful way to do self-hosting while staying close to the state of the art efficiently.
