Step 5: PostgreSQL Setup

Quicklink to add a new Docker container (paste into your browser while logged into Unraid):

http://<your-unraid-ip>/Docker/AddContainer

1. Go to the tab →
2. Select the template you downloaded (immich-postgres-official or immich-vectorchord-db)

3. Configure:

   • Network: immich_internal

   • POSTGRES_PASSWORD: Set a strong password! Generate one in the terminal:

     openssl rand -base64 32 | tr -dc A-Za-z0-9 | head -c 32
     

   • POSTGRES_USER: postgres

   • POSTGRES_DB: immich
   • Hit to start the container.

Warning

Remember/copy your POSTGRES_PASSWORD — you'll need the exact same value in the immich-server configuration.

Note

• If upgrading from VectorChord 0.4.3 to 1.0.0+: See this comment.
• You don't need to set a port. See FAQ.
