new immich version

[omega8314]

I got a notification when loading up immich today stating that there is a new version. How is Hexos streamlining app updates? I went into the trunas admin portal and update from there but i'm still on v1.124.2

the update notification was for 1.25 i think. I cant get the notification to re appear.

I believe someone needs to manually update the catalog for TrueNAS for any app updates to appear, so there's a time delay. 125 popped up for me just now so if you go to discover apps and hit refresh catalog it should show up for you as well.

As for HexOS, I don't know if it even supports app updates currently. I can't remember it alerting me to one being available, then again I hardly bother looking at the HexOS interface anymore I just go straight to TrueNAS because I find HexOS to be so limited it's not really relevant after installation.

Now it's on version 1.138.xx

I attempted to update it through the underlying TrueNAS, but encountered errors due to an invalid migration path from TypeORM, which prevented Immich from starting. So I googled and I saw this post from January.

Plex and Syncthing updated fine, however. It's just immich who is not happy.

So we're supposed to wait for the HexOS team to update the catalog manually?

I am going to try this next: https://immich.app/errors/#typeorm-upgrade

This is more complicated than I thought.

1. Need to find the TrueNAS Community Chart number that corresponds to Immich v1.132.0
2. Somehow tell TrueNAS to use that Chart number (from what I can see, there's no way to do this, but I'm a novice TrueNAS user)
3. Start Immich at least once using Immich v1.132.0
4. Upgrade to the latest chart number, which is v1.9.17 at the time of this writing.

The problem I see is that I can't tell TrueNAS to use a specific chart number for Immich, even when trying to install a new version. I only ever have one option, which is the latest version.

I'm unsure how the HexOS Team could automate this upgrade process to make it invisible to the user. Maybe that's why it's taking so long?

@Kevin did you ever figure this out? I'm in the same boat where I need to do the typeorm-upgrade but it doesn't look like there's a clear path to change it to a custom app and manually specify the version of anything :(

No, I haven't figured it out. I think HexOS is tightly controlling the Truecharts versions for compatibility reasons or something.

I got a notification in the HexOS UI that I can update Immich from 1.7.19 to 1.10.12, but Immich is currently on version 2.2.3. So these versions are waaaay behind. When I look at the version for a new Immich install via HexOS it's 1.10.12, so I don't think this is some upgrade path they're taking—like when you have to go from 1.7.19 to 1.10.12 to 2.0.2 to 2.2.3 instead of 1.7.19 to 2.2.3.

Unfortunately there are 2 version numbers for the apps in the truenas app catalog. The "version" which is what you see in hexos, this is just the iteration of the truenas docker app which has nothing to do with the overall application which is also called "app version"
you can see both of these numbers in the truenas interface if you would like but here is a screen shot

My "version" is 1.10.12 but that is the same thing as "app version" 2.2.3
so we are not actually behind.
i totally get the confusion though and ill be sure to bring it up with the team.

Just to clarify a few things

• Truecharts is a third party app store that afaik shut down and was never compatible with hexos
• All the apps you see come from the Truenas apps market which i believe is first party to truenas
• HexOS unfortunately does not have any control over app versions (as much as i wish we did for troubleshooting), this is all truenas

Thank you for the clarification! I think HexOS should be using the application version (2.2.3) in the UI, not the version (1.10.12). That way, if beginners need to Google problems, they can reference the right version. I've been using TrueNAS SCALE for about 5 years now, so I'd say I'm intermediate, but this one still tripped me up. 😅

I misspoke here and meant to say that TrueNAS tightly controls versions and community-maintained applications, not HexOS and Truecharts. 😊 After TrueNAS 24.04, iX-Systems removed K8s and no longer uses Truecharts; they now use Docker/Docker Compose. I can't remember whether Truecharts was the community-maintained version or the TrueNAS-supported version, because there was a community-maintained version that stayed more up to date with the latest application releases. The UI had a feature that let you define a chart URL back then—I miss that.

 

But I think you're right that we're not actually behind. Because 2.2.3 is the latest release of Immich, and that is what is in TrueNAS now. I will say that it does seem to take some time (several months) for them to update their Train with the newest application versions. My Immich Mobile app stopped syncing because it kept updating, and my server version stayed the same.

Regardless, I cannot update Immich from the HexOS UI:

When I click "Upgrade," it spins endlessly, and eventually it times out:

So I went to the TrueNAS UI:

Both methods kill the container, and I get this message in TrueNAS:

I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this type of non-progression issue. Seems like something got corrupted —could just be me, but just in case, I thought I'd bring it to the thread's attention. Last night I migrated Immich to another server using the REST API and a Vibe-coded NodeJS script.

Here's another point of confusion:

Immich thinks the server version is out of date because it's comparing the TrueNAS-reported version rather than the release version, but this may be more of a bug for the TrueNAS team.

unfortunately this is a known issue. the immich storage migration broke so many things. I think immich recommends users on older versions update to an inbetween version before updating to the newest version.
which is not something that can be done at this time in truenas easily.

I don't think that's the case 

I just checked my app
