Hello! Thanks to everyone who helped me yesterday, but I could not solve the issue. I however identified the problem. I opened a new thread to better focus on the real problem.

I just set up a debian server, installed docker from the official repo and then immich using docker compose. When I run docker compose up -d (after a few seconds) my server loses internet connectivity: it can access local addresses (I can ssh into it) but cannot access the internet: ping linux.org fails.

if I put down immich (docker compose down) it starts working again. the issue is probably that docker is creating a network bridge that conflicts with the host.

After searching the web, I tried to create /etc/docker/daemon.json like this:

{
  "bip": "172.18.0.1/24",
  "default-address-pools": [
    {"base": "172.19.0.0/16", "size": 24}
  ]
}

after the changes systemctl restart docker, then wait 10 seconds for everything to restart correctly.
I tried different configurations of addresses here (every stackoverflow answer gave different values, so I tried all of them), but none of them worked. I don’t know how to get which values to put here (if this is actually the solution)

a strange behavior I observed is that running ip route flush 0/0 temporary solves the problem, until the restart of docker, and Immich works normally (at least the “normal” behavior, I don’t know if this affects some functionalities)

Any tips? This is my really first experience in self hosting and I have to admit it, I thought it would have been easier :P

In case you’ll need it, here’s the output of ip addr show:

EDIT: I gave up. I removed debian and installed fedora, and now it all works like a charm

    Immich isn’t the easiest docker stack ! I will up it on my own server and give you some feedback.

    Because their isn’t any network configuration in the compose it uses the default docker network. Thus… maybe… it overlaps with your own network, that’s what your first post was about :)

    I will look into it and if nobody comes up with an anwser before me, will give you some feedback on how it went and try to find out what’s wrong !

      I “solved” giving up. I installed fedora after hours of pain, and now all works flawlessly

      thank you very much for your help!!
