Using the deduplicate all in utilities, turns up error 400 - internal server error

[Niller-Rex]

The bug

Very patiently I have waited for the ultimate button for getting rid of duplicates and finally it came. I have 171.000 duplicates and using the big button, deduplicate, all it says error 400 - internal server error.
Am I the only one with no luck on the removal of duplicates?

Please update your server to the latest release and see if you still get this error. If so, please post the logs from the containers.

@Niller-Rex Has the issue been resolved?

[Niller-Rex]

no

[Niller-Rex]

Hi
I found that :ro in the docker-compose.yml was a wrong. I have tried again and setup fstab better but now it says no rights to delete.... I will try to update the verion.

[Niller-Rex]

When upgrading in the immich-app directory as suggestet I type: sudo docker compose pull && docker compose up -d

And i get: permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Get "http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.47/containers/json?all=1&filters=%7B%22label%22%3A%7B%22com.docker.compose.config-hash%22%3Atrue%2C%22com.docker.compose.project%3Dimmich%22%3Atrue%7D%7D": dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied

In the GUI for immich under utilities review duplicates - when asking to do the batch dublicate funktion it replies briefly with no asset:delete found.

What to do?

[Niller-Rex]

This is the closest i have come on this matter:

https://immich.app/docs/api/delete-assets/

and this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/immich/comments/1cn1jb0/i_cant_delete_images_trashed_0_assets/

[danieldietzler]

Could you post the server logs?

[Niller-Rex]

Yes but how to export them?

[danieldietzler]

https://immich.app/docs/guides/docker-help#logs

[Niller-Rex]

Now the error is no longer - no asset:delete found. But immich internal server error.

Maybe the volume of assets to delete are to many?

I have the logs in putty and I don't know how to export them.
