The bug

When creating a new Immich instance, the server is reporting as down and spamming logs every 10 seconds saying it can't find the library. This problem goes away once you upload your first picture.

# Alternative API's External Address - Optional
#
# This is an advanced feature used to control the public server endpoint returned to clients during Well-known discovery.
# You should only use this if you want mobile apps to access the immich API over a custom URL. Do not include trailing slash.
# NOTE: At this time, the web app will not be affected by this setting and will continue to use the relative path: /api

Reproduction steps

Thank you for reporting! @jrasm91 I believe we didn't take into consideration this scenario right?

Yup sounds about right. We can make sure the folder exists on start up.
