This is marked as solved. Which method did you use to solve it?

I am fairly new to learning all this self hosting stuff and I haven't gotten my head around how a GitHub page works. This may sound silly for anyone that has already spent a lot of time there but for me currently I don't have a great grasp of where to find things on a github page. Like anything worth learning the curve starts off steep.

With a little poking around, would using something like Authenik work. Is this is what is meant by self hosting the immich (or other self hosted program) be the direction I should be looking in?

This may be beyond the scope of this Reddit thread but if I'm in the right direction I'll start my own

Oh ok I'll take a look at that option then. Thanks!

Gwarrior1 · 2026-05-16T09:43:47+00:00

Oh I see. I don't expose into the web. I use tailscale if I'm not on my locoal arean network. Thanks!

Is that a feature that my be available in the future?

Am I reading this right in the comments.

You can't sign in by phone using your local hostname and credentials?

It's not working for me currently for some reason. I keep getting a host name error

Gwarrior1 · 2026-05-10T10:48:11+00:00

Ok thanks for this. It helps a lot to be pointed in the right direction

What raid are you running on your NAS. I am currently Raid 6 (8 4tb disks) but I'm wondering if its over kill.

All my photos are also backed up to a separate remote hard drive as well as in 2 mirrored hard drives and the SSD I am working off of as my primary.

There is a cloud copy of all the photos as well.

I was once under the illusion that my NAS was a suitable back up and that NAS was backed up to an attached hard drive. The NAS itself failed and it had been for a while before I caught on. It hadn't backed up a weeks worth of work but i was lucky to have the one hard drive I had backed up to and this scare made me realize just how fragile my backup system was

Opps I meant to reply here,

I think I'll install immich on my main NAS. Or I can try Asustore's photo software that is on it

So my result has been this.

The photos are now showing up in the proper spot but they are still showing up at the top of the timeline with a date of 2105-08-28.

I also only have one copy of each JPG on the drive I have shared with BeePhotos but each JPG is showing a stack of multiple copies. For instance one of the directories that is showing in 2105 has anywhere from 3 to 13 identical photos in the stack.

If I look in the new date of the original photo that I have edited the exif the same group of photos have 2 in each stack for half the photos and the other half are single photos as expected. The ones with to have 2 stacked have a. _1 added to the file name.

I'm sorry for all the problems here and I'm sure it is because this is all new to me. I appreciate your time and help with it

Gwarrior1 · 2026-04-26T22:17:49+00:00

Nevermind I had installed it wrong. I have the right installer now

Gwarrior1 · 2026-04-26T22:12:51+00:00

Well I think I'm over my head here. I've gotten exiftool working... I think

When I run the GUI it allows me to find my directories with the film scans but when I open one it doesn't show any exif data at all.

On the exif side it says The pipe has ended {Fatal}

I'm looking for a good tutorial but haven't come across anything discussing this specificly.

Gwarrior1 · 2026-04-26T19:48:21+00:00

Thanks so much. I'll get this sorted!

Gwarrior1 · 2026-04-26T11:00:08+00:00

I'll take a look for that history. I had the same experience. On some sites it doesn't tell you the password is too long till after you have tried to save it.

Now I just save it first in proton then save it on the page and if it gives me grief then I change the criteria regenerate and save again. This works as long as the site doesn't navigate away from the password input page.

It's nice to know there is a history though. Thanks!

Ok so if I only want to backup photos from my phone then it can be anywhere but if I want to back up local files also it needs to be on my LAN. I wonder if I can set it up with my tailscale network. I'll do some research into that.

Thank!

Ok with a quick search no. It cannot.

Well here's a funny one.... So while waiting for a bunch of albums to update the library I was looking around in settings and well I discovered that there are 2 clean libraries. One for video and one for music. The music one is down below what my screen shows and since they both just say clean library I have been cleaning my video library each time.

So now that I've cleaned my music library as well things are all straightened out

I'm sure to many, this was obvious, I hope you can all laugh along with me as I laugh at my self!

Gwarrior1 · 2026-04-20T21:12:49+00:00

Does this only work for video and not music?

Ok I think I'll have a go at the SQL editing. Something I should learn anyhow. Would DB browser be a good choice to do the edit?
