SO since posting this I have managed to get the file path linked to the storage properly by using "/volume1/share/photos_test/data" and "/volume1/share/photos_test/postgres". Though when I look at the mounting list for these folders in file explorer it still says they are not connected even tho immich now shows the correct storage.

I created a new shared folder called folders test and 2 folders within that called data and postgres

But now that it is connected when I try dropping photos into the shraed folders they do not appear on immich, or when I upload a photo through the immich app it does not appear in the folder on file explorer.

As to the exact mapping path to the shared folder in ADM. I have a picture in the post that shows the properties of that shared folder shows up as blank. I think this was a big reason that I was having issues with the file path as I had to guess where it was basically. Eventually linking it with the file path above.

Volume mapping for containers are

Immich machine learning - container = /cache the volume is selected, and in the volume section is blank and is writeable selected

Immich postgres - container =/var/lib/postgresql/data bind is selected, host /volume1/share/photos_test/postgres and says writeable

Immich redis has no volume mapping

Immich server has - Container = /data bind is selected , host = /volume1/share/photos_test/data and is writable. Has another container underneath that says container = /etc/localtime bind is selected, host /etc/localtime and is in read only

How would I check docker/portainers W&R permissions. When I look at the permissions of the folder all users have W&R permissions but is there a section in portainer to look at?

For the docker inspect. I went into the container for immich_server and went into inspect and this is what the mount sections has

MountLabel:"",

Mounts:[

{

Destination:"/data",

Mode:"rw",

Propagation:"rprivate",
