[Bug] • "Error connecting to server - check server address and port"

[TL;DR] : Don't forget any argument in your command. I forgot the --server key and it was the issue. Thx to jrasm91 :happ: Hi fellas, I'm using Immich (and i'm a true fan :prayge: ) since a few days I uploaded everything from my phone BUT I did a google takeout to bulk upload and followed all the steps described on github. Now, I wanna upload :

immich upload --key [NahThat'sMyKeyDon'tTouchIt]  http://192.168.0.10:2283/api  --recursive '/Users/onelots/Downloads/Takeout-1/output' -t 16

immich upload --key [NahThat'sMyKeyDon'tTouchIt]  http://192.168.0.10:2283/api  --recursive '/Users/onelots/Downloads/Takeout-1/output' -t 16

And I just get this :

Checking connectivity with Immich instance...
Error connecting to server - check server address and port

Checking connectivity with Immich instance...
Error connecting to server - check server address and port

:jerry: can anyone help me please ? :prayge: thanks additional things : - My server works on the URL (photos.onelots.fr) and on the ip - /api/server-info/version = {"major":1,"minor":78,"patch":1}

http://192.168.0.10:2283/api

Onelots.OP•2y ago

:AHEM: my bad, i wrote the message without copy/paste and it was an important point I wanted to remember... and that I forget

Onelots.OP•2y ago

but Yeah i'm hitting /api

jrasm91•2y ago

Where are you running this command from?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

my terminal Hm actually I'm in the google-photo-exif folder the one I used to concatenate jsons and img

jrasm91•2y ago

But on a separate machine? Immich is running on another machine on the network? You can access immich via a browser from this same machine?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

yep, okay I'm running the command on my mac, and my server is on the same network

jrasm91•2y ago

It is accessible via http on that ip from you mac?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

it is

Onelots.OP•2y ago

jrasm91•2y ago

You can login successfully? This is via ip and 2283? I'm not familiar with this browser and i do not see a port? Is it using port 80?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

I Can login successfully, and this is via IP and 2283 @jrasm91 (or using the url, I have a reverse proxy so)

jrasm91•2y ago

And the CLI still is not working? Can you paste the full command?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

nah it is not :Lavie_estdure: I posted it above, I re post it now

immich upload --key [NahThat'sMyKeyDon'tTouchIt]  http://192.168.0.10:2283/api  --recursive '/Users/onelots/Downloads/Takeout-1/output' -t 16

immich upload --key [NahThat'sMyKeyDon'tTouchIt]  http://192.168.0.10:2283/api  --recursive '/Users/onelots/Downloads/Takeout-1/output' -t 16

jrasm91•2y ago

That doesn't make any sense. I feel like you are missing something you are not sharing, which is why it is hard to debug or you have a very strange error where networking is different between the browser and the request from the terminal

Onelots.OP•2y ago

I agree with you 😂 It doesn't make any fcking sense I'm on the same network wait nah it's good The api key is fine

jrasm91•2y ago

Do you have any custom firewall or access rules? And the error is still a network error?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

ah maybe an ufw yeah still

jrasm91•2y ago

Can you curl the API from the same terminal?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

:Hitto: I'm gonna be crazy I know this reply is like "normal"

jrasm91•2y ago

And does the route /api/server-info/ping work?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

it does, sadly I don't understand where is the problem maybe the api key I'm gonna try to change it it doesn't work :TktJsuisPasTriste:

jrasm91•2y ago

If the api key is invalid that would be really annoying if it gave a connection error If your key has weird characters in it, it might be not actually sending the expected value If it has $, ', or " it might be doing bash stuff. You can try escaping it with ' on each side

Onelots.OP•2y ago

I'ma try it has $ nope X) still not working I just checked, my container is available from everywhere, there is no trouble here.

jrasm91•2y ago

It has a $ did you wrap the api key with single quotes?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

yep I did it actually I don't care :kekexplosion: here is the key

jrasm91•2y ago

lol

Onelots.OP•2y ago

I re generated the key it is faos646m3WwkBWAbdJHW1LGtszzauMFoHsdsm7DymM

jrasm91•2y ago

And the full command now?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

no character uh

sudo immich upload --key 'faos646m3WwkBWAbdJHW1LGtszzauMFoHsdsm7DymM' http://192.168.0.10:2283/ --recursive '/Users/onelots/Downloads/Takeout-1/output' -t 16

immich upload --key 'faos646m3WwkBWAbdJHW1LGtszzauMFoHsdsm7DymM' http://192.168.0.10:2283/ --recursive '/Users/onelots/Downloads/Takeout-1/output' -t 16

doesn't work

jrasm91•2y ago

WHY IS THERE NO /api???

Onelots.OP•2y ago

RHAAA

Onelots.OP•2y ago

sudo immich upload --key 'faos646m3WwkBWAbdJHW1LGtszzauMFoHsdsm7DymM' http://192.168.0.10:2283/api --recursive '/Users/onelots/Downloads/Takeout-1/output' -t 16

😂 it doesn't work with it neither :issou:

jrasm91•2y ago

Can you do the previous curl test with sudo?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

yep

jrasm91•2y ago

Does immich command not work without sudo?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

same result "404 blablabla" it works I just tried it, maybe it was it but no and since I just use arrow_up instead of typing the command everytime I have to, it stays

jrasm91•2y ago

Can you send me a screenshot of the non-sudo version of the command with /api?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

(i tried to uninstall/reinstall immich btw) uh okay but it's the same

jrasm91•2y ago

You uninstalled it? Did your database persist between that or you started over? Is the api key still valid?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

❯ immich upload --key 'faos646m3WwkBWAbdJHW1LGtszzauMFoHsdsm7DymM' http://192.168.0.10:2283/api --recursive '/Users/onelots/Downloads/Takeout-1/output' -t 16

jrasm91•2y ago

oh the cli

Onelots.OP•2y ago

excuse-me I wasn't clear enough yep

jrasm91•2y ago

OK let's try this instead. Idk why it doesn't log the actual error. Can you navigate to $HOME/node_modules/immich-cli/?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

yep cd: no such file or directory: /Users/onelots/node_modules/immich-cli/ :sueur: lemme find it

jrasm91•2y ago

which immich

Onelots.OP•2y ago

yes /usr/local/bin/immich lessgo

jrasm91•2y ago

Is that an alias to another location?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

it is not :Think:

jrasm91•2y ago

link*

Onelots.OP•2y ago

it is a file

jrasm91•2y ago

Is it a text file? Can you edit it?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

❯ cd /usr/local/bin/immich cd: not a directory: /usr/local/bin/immich it looks like yes

jrasm91•2y ago

something crazy like this at the top?

jrasm91•2y ago

Find the line Error connecting to server

Onelots.OP•2y ago

okay

jrasm91•2y ago

Right before/after it add

console.error(e)

console.error(e)

Then run the command again

Onelots.OP•2y ago

function pingServer(endpoint) {
    return __awaiter(this, void 0, void 0, function* () {
        try {
            const res = yield axios_1.default.get(`${endpoint}/server-info/ping`);
            if (res.data['res'] == 'pong') {
                log(chalk_1.default.green('Server status: OK'));
            }
        }
        catch (e) {
            log(chalk_1.default.red('Error connecting to server - check server address and port'));
            process.exit(1);
        }
    });
}

            process.exit(1);
        }

}

okay

jrasm91•2y ago

right before the process exit is fine You're a hacker now

Onelots.OP•2y ago

let's debug

Onelots.OP•2y ago

:jerry: I'm in an ingeneer school I debug pretty often actually :issou: Error: connect ECONNREFUSED ::1:80 at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (node:net:1300:16) { okay I'm gonna commit mass murder :serieux:

jrasm91•2y ago

It is using port 80 to connect?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

it seems to what the heck i specified 2283

jrasm91•2y ago

hold up

Onelots.OP•2y ago

lemme try with the URl since it uses the port 80

jrasm91•2y ago

you need to speicfy the url is the server url lol not a path --server <url>

Onelots.OP•2y ago

LMAOOO :kekexplosion: no plz

jrasm91•2y ago

lets gooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Onelots.OP•2y ago

don't tell me it's ONLY this just because of a fucking little arg ALLEZ

jrasm91•2y ago

(and bad logging in the cli 😛 )

Onelots.OP•2y ago

OK I'M GONNA KILL MYSELF :exit: you're sweet but i'm the only one in fault :Lavie_estdure: okay, maybe logging could be a BIT more explicit it works lessgo uploading :loading: thanks @jrasm91 :prayge: what would I do without you

jrasm91•2y ago

Well, now that I have your url and api key I would probably recommend changing it 🙂

Onelots.OP•2y ago

Yeah good Idea Fuck I launched the transfer :serieux: Upload Progress | █░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ | 2% 237/9501 Current file [/Users/onelots/Downloads/Takeout-1/outp erf

jrasm91•2y ago

You can ctrl c it np

Onelots.OP•2y ago

and it will resume to where it stopped ?

jrasm91•2y ago

It'll skip ones that are fully uploaded.

Onelots.OP•2y ago

it's not like cp :jerry: incredible great thx

jrasm91•2y ago

Onelots.OP•2y ago

you made my day thx

Onelots.OP•2y ago

jrasm91•2y ago

Nice. Where did you post that?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

I edited the original post above ⏫

jrasm91•2y ago

Oh gotcha, sounds good.

Onelots.OP•2y ago

:Thumb: Thanks, again

jrasm91•2y ago

Onelots.OP•2y ago

@jrasm91 just like that, I assume this is a visual bug ? Comparing local assets with those on the Immich instance... A total of 245 assets will be uploaded to the server Do you want to start upload now? (y/n) y Start uploading... Upload Progress | ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ | 0% 7/9501 Current file [/Users/onelots/Downloads/Takeout-1/output/IMG_20190813_132326.jpg] (I stopped then started)

jrasm91•2y ago

which part?

Onelots.OP•2y ago

I stopped at like 8750 and I just had 245 left why does he want to upload 9501 :jerry:

jrasm91•2y ago

Yeah, it's a bug. The total there is everything, but it will stop after 245 finish 9501 is how many assets it found, it doesn't update after the uploaded assets are filtered out.

Onelots.OP•2y ago

k great yep okay
