App stops working after a 400

Start in ImmichFrame.Core/Logic/PooledImmichFrameLogic.cs at GetImage (around line 104), where the ImmichApi ViewAssetAsync call throws, and in ImmichFrame.WebApi/Controllers/AssetController.cs GetImage (line 69). Check whether an ApiException from a single asset can be caught and skipped so the frame moves on. The second question, whether the wrong API key is used, is unresolved and needs reproduction against two keys. Done means a 400 for one asset no longer breaks the slideshow, with a test or a manual check.

Version

v1.0.29.0

Deployment Method

Linux Server

Description

Our current configuration has two users (API Keys) on the same server. Every few hours, the web app stops working after it hits a 400 retrieving a particular asset. It displays the error page with the following message: "Looks like your immich-server is offline or you misconfigured immichFrame, check the container logs". The logs show a single failing request, and then continued working requests to immich after the failure. The error page continues to display, even though the frame is requesting other images successfully after the failure.

This is not limited to a single asset, and occurs after a few hours of normal operation.

There are two potential issues here:

1. a 400 error for a single asset disables the entire web app, instead of logging an error and moving on to other assets.
2. The logs show the asset failing, but the album info for the asset succeeding. Manual immich API calls to retrieve the asset thumbnail work...with one of the API Keys. Is ImmichFrame potentially using the wrong key? I have no good proof of this - just speculation. I confirmed that the asset isn't returned to the metadata search used by the key that fails this asset.

Reproduction

Part 1 (error page) - force immich to return a 400 for an asset (i.e. get an asset to return to the frame on startup, and then move it)
Part 2 - not sure.

Of note - this occurs every few hours in our setup. I've already increased log levels, which so far only unearthed this asset 400 error, but I'm happy to continue to debug. My gut says this might be related to running multiple API keys from the same server, since these failing assets have always returned 200s for one of the configured keys but 400s on the other (which seems reasonable).

Expectations

1. a single 400 error shouldn't stop the web app from working
2. I'm not yet sure what is causing the 400 error, but ideally that wouldn't happen either!
