The bug

Memories were working few weeks ago when I initially set up Immich.
I exexuted command:
/opt/immich-app# docker compose exec --user postgres database psql -Ppager=no -d immich -c 'select "createdAt", type, "memoryAt", "showAt", "hideAt", "seenAt" from memory order by 1' createdAt | type | memoryAt | showAt | hideAt | seenAt -----------+------+----------+--------+--------+-------- (0 rows)
result:
createdAt | type | memoryAt | showAt | hideAt | seenAt -----------+------+----------+--------+--------+-------- (0 rows)
double checked with server.com/api/memories
result:
[]

What I tried:

  1. Deleting and starting Memories from webui

docker compose exec --user postgres database psql -d immich -c 'TRUNCATE TABLE memory RESTART IDENTITY CASCADE;'
3.
docker exec immich_postgres psql --dbname=immich --username=postgres -c "delete from system_metadata where key like 'memory-state'; truncate table memory cascade;"
4.
curl -X PUT "https://<immich-host>/api/jobs/backgroundTask" \ -H "X-Api-Key: <ADMIN_API_KEY>" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"command":"resume","force":true}'
Nothing from above fixed the issue
There is nothing related to memories in Immich logs
