April 5, 20179 yr Does this docker include the database? If so what are the username and Password needed in the initial setup?
May 1, 20179 yr Hi, I have a mariadb in a docker that I use for Kodi already. I've added a user/pass for Lychee in the database. I seem stuck trying to get Lychee to connect to the database. I'm not sure what I'm missing in terms of configuration? I checked the Lychee log, and no issues are reporting in there. Any advice on next steps? Thanks!
May 1, 20179 yr The actual error I'm getting is"Unable to connect to host because access was denied, double check host, user-name & password, and check that access from your location is permitted" I opted to let Lychee create the database. Edited May 1, 20179 yr by montery

I also dropped the user and created it manually: CREATE USER 'lychee'@'%' identified by 'pictures'; Grant all on *.* to 'lychee'; Flush privileges; /* Affected rows: 0 Found rows: 0 Warnings: 0 Duration for 3 queries: 0.062 sec. */ I then verified that lychee didn't have an expired password: select user, password_expired from mysql.user ..and I verified my host was set to '%' -- so it should accept a connection from anywhere. I log into Lychee using 192.168.1.200:3306, username/password, and I get the error message above. I check both Lychee and MariaDB logs - clean, even after a shutdown and restart of the services on both. I'm sure I'm doing something elementary that is wrong, but I can't tell what it might be. Thanks again in advance for the help, I do appreciate it. Update: I tried logging into the MariaDB through HeidiSQL using the username/password that I setup for Lychee, and I was able to login successfully through Heidi. I don't know what the issue is with Lychee, but I'm guessing there is something not quite right with Lychee! Edited May 5, 20179 yr by montery update
May 9, 20179 yr Having the same issue as montery...can't connect Lychee to MariaDB. Steps taken: 1. Installed MariaDB docker. Set port to 3306 2. Install Lychee docker. Set port to 83 3. Navigated to lan ip :83 and entered in the info found in Img_1 (attached) All I see though is an error message saying Lychee can't connect (see Img_2 attached). I clicked on the logs on each, and they both don't seem to show any errors. I've attached both of the log files. What am I missing? User permissions? LOGS: lychee_logs.txt mariadb_logs.txt Edit: After thinking about this, I'm feeling that Lychee the docker doesn't have access to MariaDB the docker. I'm new to all this, but that would make sense to me because I didn't set any permissions up between the two. I'm not sure how to add those permissions, but is that a valid thought? I need to add permission for Lychee to talk to MariaDB? Edit 2: After a couple restarts, it finally starting working. Not sure what the issue was. Edited May 9, 20179 yr by J_Hizzal
May 19, 20179 yr I am experiencing the same issue as J_Hizzal described above. I can't seem to connect the the database. I am entering in the correct IP address, port, user and password. No luck. I have restarted mutiple times. Looknig for suggestions. Edit: So I deleted the password and logged into the database as root and solved the problem. Edited May 20, 20179 yr by dubbly Solved problem
May 20, 20179 yr Hi All, Is everyone aware that Lychee is desctructive to photos when you import them? Does the group here have a recommendation on how to resolve this? Do, i need to create an entirely seperate share for the photos on Lychee so that they are not destroyed? Suggestions are appricated!

Do, i need to create an entirely seperate share for the photos on Lychee so that they are not destroyed? Suggestions are appricated! I wouldn't describe it as destructive, but yes, it's not suitable to archive all your photos. I personally use Nextcloud to store all my photos and my wife only uploads photos she wants to share to Lychee.
May 20, 20179 yr Good point. I was refrencing the fact that it appears to delete a photo when it is uploaded. I will look at Nextcloud. I take it that your wife uploads a copy and not the original?
May 20, 20179 yr Hi CHBMB, I would like to learn more about how you use Nextcloud for your photos in combination with unraid?
May 20, 20179 yr Basically I have the nextcloud client on mine and my wife's phones and it uploads any photos we take when connected to my home wifi. Any photos we take using our proper camera we connect to a laptop and upload manually.Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk
September 2, 20178 yr I am struggling to understand how to import from server function works.

December 15, 20187 yr I am just starting out with migrating to lychee, but I need to add some extensions (most importantly lycheesync). These are not included with the docker image afaik, but I do not see a way to change this. Any pointers, or could it be added to the image?

January 9, 20197 yr I'm trying to import a large number of files, but the import process seems to hang after a certain # of pics imported. Sometimes it's ~85, sometimes it's a few hundred, but eventually it stops importing but doesn't tell me. Is there some kind of setting or better way of doing this? I have around 18k pictures in total and importing them a few hundred at a time is painful.

The base install of lychee has no good ways for automation and large jobs like you mentioned. Might be lychee is just not a solution for use cases like this

I'm also concerned that it imports all of the pictures into the database, which means the files are no longer on my Share, but my Docker/VM ssd (unassigned drive). I am still looking for a solution that will allow you to keep the photos where they are. I'm trying Photoshow at the moment, but it's quite slow.

I'm trying Photoshow at the moment, but it's quite slow. yep, but that is lycheesyncs pitch: Having both the lychee db (with its speed advantages) and the filesystem untouched. I am also testing the alternatives. Fileshow and others that pride themselfes with a no db pitch are just to always to slow for my usecase. The closest so far to what I have in mind is filerun as it leaves the structures untouched, but has been quite fast. It just is not really designed to be used primarily with photos in mind, so it does not offer all the features I would like. Still not a bad solution for now. Check it out. Piwigo shot itself in the foot instantly when the import feature crapped itself with utf8 problems, so that one was out quick Photoprism looked promising but was nowhere near where it needs to be, but worth revisiting in the future. Other options I have tried were not even worth mentioning. Never imagined photo/gallery server to be such a empty landscape Edited January 25, 20197 yr by Draic
