Photoprism will not start on a jail in TrueNAS

Apps and Virtualization

I installed Photoprism on a jail with Release 13.3, Seems like it installed successfully, but when doing ‘service photoprism start’ - nothing happens and the service stays on ‘not running’ state.

Any ideas how can I troubleshoot this?

Thanks!

Find out where the logfiles for photoprism are stored and have a look. If it does not even come to the point that a logfile can be written, try this as root on the shell instead of service photoprism start:

sh -x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/photoprism start

This will show you all commands in the service startup script as it executes them. Down at the bottom you will find the final command that actually starts the service. Copy and execute that and look for errors.
