Mobile upload keeps uploading same files

[roi-user]

The bug

I installed immich server and then syncronized my gallery
Later, I wanted to move the db on docker but i managed to broke it
I reinstalled immich and reuploaded the old immich UPLOAD_LOCATION files to the new server instance directly using immich-go
*The new UPLOAD_LOCATION is diferent than the old one)

When I configured the app again, I was able to resyncronice my assets (althought they are in a black list and not recognised as original)
The problem is with some videos, they keep to be uploaded without need to.

Attached video of sync process:
The file gets uploaded but no changes in remainder files backup or Files synced

This sounds like the limitation of CF Tunnel, or you don't have your Reverse Proxy setup to allow large file sizes

[roirh]

Hi, Thank you for the quick response (I created the issue with the wrong account)
Yes you are right, it was a CF Proxy limitation. I wanted to use it to give an extra layer of protection (I also have reverse proxy in my system)

As a improve sugestion, Chunks uploads are a way to solve the problem, and hash files before upload (like the tool immich-go does)

I believe I am having the same issue. Nothing ever gets uploaded unless I use the local IP address. What's the solution? Is there a CloudFlare Tunnel setting I can change?

[roirh]

Hi,
My setup can be different of yours. I was only using CloudFlare proxy at the DNS level, so traffic gets filtered by their proxy before reaching my server that has open ports and public ip.

If you are using a CloudFlare tunnel to access your machine you wont we able to upload large files, but photos you should.
