face:background_job crashed by 8/8

Hi, I might have a similar problem - it seems like nothing happens when I start the background job and I have lots of images that seemingly aren't analysed.

How can I find out what's happening? I don't find anything in nextcloud's logs and I have no idea how to get any error message out of the face recognition module itself.

I would very much like to find out what's going on.

My environment is nextcloud 27.1.5 in a docker image from the official images

Hi @fr3ddy-sudo

        Found 8 faces without associated persons for user fr3ddy and model 1
        Oldest face without persons for user fr3ddy and model 1 is from 2023-11-21 05:35:54
        Clusters already exist, estimated there is no need to recreate them

It found 8 new faces, but it says that it is not going to create clusters... that is because it tries not to recreate it continuously since it is a task that can consume important resources. The process simply has a two-hour window to recreate the clusters. After these two hours you will get the new faces/clusters.

ps.: sorry the delay.. I'm very busy.. 😞

I am going through the same. I am using Nextcloud in a Docker. I was able to edit "apps/facerecognition/lib/BackgroundJob/Tasks/ImageProcessingTask.php" and added some log messages. In \ImageProcessingTask.execute() the value $images = $context->propertyBag['images']; is returning empty, even though I have uploaded many images.

I have another Nextcloud running directly on Ubuntu and Facerecognition runs fine. So, it is something related to the docker installation.

I used this method to create the docker instance https://github.com/juliushaertl/nextcloud-docker-dev

I turns out in my case I didn't enable the user to "Analyze my images and group my loved ones with similar faces". Now it is working.
