Pictures don't index in /photo/NFS_Share or /photo/CIFS_Share Shared Space


Recommended Posts

I have mounted NFS of Samba shares with pictures from a debian server in /var/services/photo/. The shares mount fine (tried with NFS and CIFS) but I am having problems with indexing existing pictures already in the shares. If tried indexing from command line with synoindex or from the Indexing Service GUI with no luck. When I access the shared pictures in Synology photos I see all pictures with the hourglass spinning bottom right and when I try to access them it says "The file cannot be displayed because it is currently being indexed or converted."

 

I'm convinced that the shares are mounted correctly because if I upload a picture from the Synology Photos gui and then reindex it shows up fine along with the thumbnail indexing. This leads me to believe that there shouldn't be any issues with permissions of accessing the shares.

 

I read on a forum that indexing by running "synowebapi --exec api=SYNO.FotoTeam.Index method=reindex version=1 runner={username} type=basic" might fix the issue but no luck.

 

Has anyone managed to properly reindex pictures, videos, etc. from a NFS or CIFS share that has been mounted in the Shared Space of Synology Photos?
