Edit: I found the solution. I was missing a few environment variables.
These are the functioning Ansible tasks to deploy Immich:

I’m trying to install Immich via Ansible and so far so good. The containers are all running and as long as I don’t try to access it the logs all look fine but as soon as I try to access the GUI I get the following error spammed in the immich-server container log and the browser just shows a timeout and doesn’t connect to the GUI.

Here are my Ansible tasks to deploy Immich:

The variables are:

immich_postgres_db_user: postgres
immich_postgres_db_password: postgres
for testing purposes.
I’m currently running this on a Hyper-V VM running Fedora 39 Server Edition.
I don’t know how to fix this issue, can someone help me?
I found this issue on the Immich GitHub where I found a possible fix regarding the firewall that it might block something but it didn’t really help.
So I’m thankful for any ideas you can throw my way. Tell me if you need any more info.
Edit: Overlooked an error in the log and added it to the post.
I think you have forgotten to specify the hostname of your database. Immich has the credentials to the database but doesn’t know where it is.
The environment variable would be
DB_HOSTNAME.Edit: I just noticed the other error message regarding Redis, and I suspect the same mistake there, you need to specify
REDIS_HOSTNAME.This confuses me because the default docker-compose.yml from Immich doesn’t set these environment variables.
That confuses me as well, I guess they changed docs in meantime. Anyway, here is my working env:
UPLOAD_LOCATION=/srv/disk/immich/ IMMICH_VERSION=v1.103.1 TYPESENSE_API_KEY=zzXYL9UUjX6CV3T8y7f DB_PASSWORD=xxx123immich DB_HOSTNAME=immich_postgres DB_USERNAME=postgres DB_DATABASE_NAME=immich DB_DATA_LOCATION=/home/config/immich/db REDIS_HOSTNAME=immich_redisSeems like they changed it last week: https://github.com/immich-app/immich/commit/7ea539b753b1993cd0735db408e5954288bf6b68
I added the
REDIS_HOSTNAMEandDB_DATA_LOCATIONenvironment variables. Not sure if I understood it right, but I guess not since it still doesn’t work:Ansible tasks
