Reproduction steps

1. Added my Camera Roll (From OneDrive) folder to Immich's docker container, 
2. Went and added it using the "External Library Managment" 
3. You will see that it at 0 assets and 0 bytes
4. Trying to refresh it won't do anything
5. Tried to force-rescan but dosen't work

Additional information

Nothing at all

@bo0tzz commented on GitHub (Apr 5, 2024):

Do you have the files stored locally, or did you add the mounted onedrive folder directly? I wouldn't be surprised if the latter doesn't work, since onedrive then does some filesystem tricks to make it look like the files are there while actually just streaming them from the cloud.

Need this fixed ASAP

Thanks @bo0tzz for the reply,

They are stored locally and not rcloned

This is inappropriate

I am really sorry about that, hope that didn't mess your day up or something

All good :)

In your compose file I don't see any mounts for an external library, are you sure you added it? Pointing UPLOAD_LOCATION at a folder with existing files won't work, the UPLOAD_LOCATION needs to be empty.

You also need to mount the files into the container. Did you read the docs and guide?
