upload_location is empty but i am uploading files "somewhere", not sure where
Just trying to set up immich. I initially ran immich with default env file, on the assumption that the folders would be created in the immich-app folder for library and postgres. It seemed to not be the case for me. I then used docker compose down, and gave it absolute paths in the env file instead, and made the folders manually for library and postgres. I now ran docker compose up -d and i still don't understand where immich is storing my images, these folders stay empty. Not sure how to proceed. even starting immich from scratch gives instructions for nuking old data, but I just don't understand where the data is going. Could use any help. (if it helps, im using macos and colima, and i am trying to use paths on an external drive)
