I have searched the existing issues, both open and closed, to make sure this is not a duplicate report.

  • Yes

The bug

My newly uploaded images are not viewable on the web.

Image

The OS that Immich Server is running on

NixOS on arm64 using docker-compose

Version of Immich Server

v1.139.4

Version of Immich Mobile App

v1.139.3 build.3008

Platform with the issue

  • Server
  • Web
  • Mobile

Device make and model

No response

Your docker-compose.yml content

default

Your .env content

default

Reproduction steps

  1. I upload an image via the immich app.
  2. Inside the web it cannot be shown.

Relevant log output


Additional information

I am using the beta timeline feature.

The images are viewable inside the immich android app.
Also the images are downloadable from the web and can then be opened correctly on windows, even tho they cannot be displayed inside the browser.
Also my google pixel creates short videos for those images - the short videos are playable (by hovering on the image), even tho the image itself cannot be shown.
Videos in general work, both uploading and viewing inside the browser.

Would an example image be of help?
I could provide one.

This workaround worked for me:

https://github.com/immich-app/immich/issues/21237#issuecomment-3227172633

We could probably close this issue as a duplicate of #21237 ?

I added VIPS_NOVECTOR=1 to my .env file any did a sudo docker compose restart.
I can't notice any difference, the server still restarts every time I try to generate the thumbnail.
I beleve this is a seperate issue, as here there was no error message, just like I don't see one in my logs either while in #21237 there was one. I also beleve I managed to reproduce the issue described in #21237, wich did not crash the immich server and did produce an error.

@Mabeeck Can you try running docker compose down && docker compose up -d instead? Unsure whether the containers would contain your updated .env changes when using restart

You are the tech support we all need. A true hero! It worked!
There not having been an error message is weird though. Not that I need to care now.

Thank you. :)
