The bug

I'm using immich using the compose file with podman. Everything works perfectly until immich eventually fails to load after some time. I'm not sure how long but I usually check the next day after restarting the container and it just fails to load. I get a 502 Bad Gateway error on the browser but no error in any of the container logs. Not sure what's going on here.

The OS that Immich Server is running on

Arch Linux

Version of Immich Server

Reproduction steps

  1. I run the immich container stack using podman-compose up -d
  2. Immich works fine. I can access it over the browser and everything.
  3. I try accessing it again the next day and it just throws a 502 Bad Gateway error unless I restart the immich container stack. I couldn't find any errors in logs.
    ...

Relevant log output

Additional information

The memory limits in the compose file were added by me to check if it was a memory leak issue but unfortunately even that didn't fix the issue.
