  • Yes

The bug

Immich is caching files for upload even though there is not enough disk space to do so, which completely breaks sync. Unfortunately when Immich is this state, the logs will also not export, with a lot of other functions of app not working either.

The OS that Immich Server is running on

Arch

Version of Immich Server

v2.0.1

Version of Immich Mobile App

v2.0.1 build.230

Platform with the issue

  • Server
  • Web
  • Mobile

Device make and model

iPhone 12

Your docker-compose.yml content

Default

Your .env content

Default
(exception of DB location and upload location)

Reproduction steps

  1. Have a mobile device at about max capacity
  2. Try to backup a file much larger than the disk

Relevant log output

This is something that should typically be handled by monitoring on your server. Running out of free space will make almost all server deployed projects break.

Or by disk do you mean the phone storage filling up? We already have an issue open for that.

Yes that’s what I meant. And this differs from the other issue. My problem wasn’t the Immich app growing permanently (if this is the issue your referencing), it was the Immich app attempting to cache a 5gb video for upload even though there was 1gb left on phone storage
