sudo chown pi /home/pi/photoprism -R *

what should happen after that?

And: Your post 11:28 - Code, line2:

- "/home/pi/Pictures:/photoprism/original" # Original media files (DO NOT REMOVE)

is singular correct?

[huber70]

@mariosipad

just to be sure that this is the right entry: docker-compose.yml (under /home/pi/photoprism/) shows changings as follows:

volumes:
# "/host/folder:/photoprism/folder" # Example
- "/home/pi/Pictures:/photoprism/original" # Original media files (DO NOT REMOVE)
# - "/example/family:/photoprism/originals/family" # *Additional* media folders can be mounted like this
# - "~/Import:/photoprism/import" # *Optional* base folder from which files can be imported to originals
- "./storage:/photoprism/storage" # *Writable* storage folder for cache, database, and sidecar files (DO NOT REMOVE)

@huber70

Let me try again (and now check what I'm typing before clicking POST):


The line
- "/home/pi/Pictures:/photoprism/originals" # Original media files (DO NOT REMOVE)
tells docker to "link" the directory on SD-card /home/pi/Pictures to the directory /photoprism/originals inside the docker photoprism container.

[If you copied from the post at 11:28 then that might explain the issues. I honestly do not know why the s disappeared as I only copied some code... sorry]

At this stage what I would do is:

1) stop and remove all containers shown with docker ps -a and docker ps until docker ps -a shows

CONTAINER ID   IMAGE                                   COMMAND                  CREATED        STATUS                      PORTS

2a) Remove all files and directories below /home/pi/photoprism to make sure you start from scratch again.
2b) Also remove any /home/pi/database and /home/pi/photoprism/database directory
2c) (optional) set correct user:
(remove spaces between p & i and i & : and : & p)

sudo chown p i : p i /home/pi/Pictures -R *
sudo chown p i : p i /home/pi/photoprism -R *
This makes certain that all used directories are readable and writable by user pi.

3) change docker-compose.yml in /home/pi/photoprism

    volumes:
      # "/host/folder:/photoprism/folder"                # Example
      - "/home/pi/Pictures:/photoprism/originals"               # Original media files (DO NOT REMOVE)
      # - "/example/family:/photoprism/originals/family" # *Additional* media folders can be mounted like this
      # - "~/Import:/photoprism/import"                  # *Optional* base folder from which files can be imported to originals
      - "/home/pi/photoprism/storage:/photoprism/storage"                  # *Writable* storage folder for cache, database, and sidecar files (DO NOT REMOVE)

Please review and make sure you understand what to do (and correct me if I'm wrong).

@mariosipad,

thanks for the help, I will follow it later after barbecue is done

[huber70]

@mariosipad

now working a little bit slower:

1) Understand description you sent of the line "handover Pictures to originals"

2) sent argument stop and remove all containers shown with "docker ps -a" and "docker ps"

Result:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ docker ps -a
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
a0d18bdfc9e5 photoprism/photoprism:arm64 "/scripts/entrypoint…" 5 hours ago Exited (143) 4 minutes ago photoprism_photoprism_1

a3a4fa9125e1 photoprism/photoprism:arm64 "/scripts/entrypoint…" 30 hours ago Created pi-photoprism-1
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ docker ps

12f547900e34 arm64v8/mariadb:10.11 "docker-entrypoint.s…" 5 hours ago Up 4 minutes 3306/tcp photoprism_mariadb_1

3) Removed all files and directories below /home/pi/photoprism
4) Removed /home/pi/database

5) Started docker ps -a and docker ps

Result as above - container not empty

Will not continue before your comment

@huber70

A good BBQ takes time to heat up and to eat. Especially if accompanied with a good glas of whatever you like.

1) Retry
docker stop photoprism_mariadb_1
docker rm photoprism_mariadb_1
docker ps [should be empty, if not docker rm -f photoprism_mariadb_1 , then check again]

3) Remove any directory named storage in /home/pi so that all databases with possibly wrong info are removed.

4) I hope we now are back to an empty canvas.

5) then try again......

6) if it does not work try my slightly alternative setup without mariadb, but yours is better.

[huber70]

@mariosipad

thanks - now "docker ps" is empty!, no storage directory anymore

5) try again means? Is there still a "photoprism"? (just directory /home/pi/photoprism exists with nothing more inside than the docker-compose.yml)

[mariosipad]

@huber70

OK!

1) cd /home/pi/photoprism
2) edit the docker-compose.yml file if needed
3) docker-compose up -d
4) what is the output of: docker ps
5) In photoprism directories will appear as empty
6) start indexing and pictures will appear [disclaimer: I get an error message and pictures will still appear. Indexing does take forever if I check CPU usage with top. Your pi may overheat!!!]

[huber70]

@mariosipad

First error???

pi@raspberrypi:~/photoprism $ docker-compose up -d
ERROR: Named volume "home/pi/photoprism/storage:/photoprism/storage:rw" is used in service "photoprism" but no declaration was found in the volumes section.

Should be normal: There are no more folders within the directory, just directory /home/pi/photoprism exists with nothing more inside than the docker-compose.yml

[mariosipad]

@huber70

The line in docker-compose.yml
- "./storage:/photoprism/storage" # *Writable* storage folder for cache, database, and sidecar files (DO NOT REMOVE)

can be either
1) left as is in the original docker-compose.yml (upon review there is no need to change it).
2) change to
- "/home/pi/photoprism/storage:/photoprism/storage"

I think that (missing /) is the cause or the error.

Before running docker-compose.yml again make sure that the output of docker ps -a is empty.

[huber70]

@mariosipad

thanks, that was it - created database folder!

Next step output of docker ps:

pi@raspberrypi:~/photoprism $ docker ps
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
b72b77c22a0a photoprism/photoprism:arm64 "/scripts/entrypoint…" 58 seconds ago Up 56 seconds 0.0.0.0:2342->2342/tcp, 2442-2443/tcp photoprism_photoprism_1

[mariosipad]

@huber70

.... and now https://docs.photoprism.app/user-gui...ary/originals/

[huber70]

@mariosipad

created folders "import" and "originals" manually

then run xxx.xxx.xxx.xx:2342/library index and

juchhu: indexing started with the first folder of the "Pictures" directory

This will last now for apprxox 26 hours (I remember)
Temperature CPU is ca 83°C, no cooling fan

[mariosipad]

@huber70

The CPU will throttle (reduce speed).

Put a regular fan on it ;-).

Just a bit of airflow is enough.

[huber70]

@mariosipad

how to reduce speed without cooling fan?
