Hi all, trying to install immich via the built in app docker and running into this error.

from what i understand from previous docker installations, this is a chown or user permission error. Ive run into similar issues when trying to install something similar with dockge compose.

with further checking, since docker is installed as a root user i am unable to change/edit/delete the config.json and let it recreate itself so that it can be accessed…

I have installed dockge and have been using custom docker apps this way, has this broken the original app installer? since im getting it on all apps now.

for anyone ever getting into the same issue.
Was a simple matter of going into ssh root and deleting the incorrectly created directory and making a blank file.

Hi !
I have the same problem…
What did you delete with the ssh connexion ?
I try to delete the images for immich and reinstall the app but not working and i can’t figure out how this work
Thanks

I deleted the config.json directory and created a file instead.
I assume one of the apps I installed created it as a directory instead.
The exact file is in the log when it fails to load

I’m having the exact same exact install issue.

Path [/mnt/postgres/data] is not empty, skipping…

having trouble figuring out how to delete it.
