Originally created by @pilotspelman on GitHub (Sep 15, 2025).

I have searched the existing issues, both open and closed, to make sure this is not a duplicate report.

The bug

When I try to correct coordinates, they are not saved to the system after I click "Confirm". The form behaves as it should, including clicking on the map, but the values are not saved to the system.
I am currently running v1.142.0 in a docker container on a QNAP NAS TS-453 Pro, QTS 5.2.6 (20250818), 5.10.60-qnap #1 SMP Mon Aug 18 15:47:45 CST 2025 x86_64 GNU/Linux.

Your external library is mounted readonly, so Immich can't write changes.

I have now changed line 23 to the following, i.e., without the restriction RO:

/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/Media/mainfolder:/external
Now the update of asset location works as expected, but I don't really understand the logic. After updating an asset location, I don't see any change whatsoever to the source file, so why is write permission to the external library needed?
I assume that the EXIF data, including coordinates, is imported into the database. Then the database should be able to be updated without write access to the external library, right?
I mounted the external library as read-only to protect against possible software errors.

Sorry! Now I discovered that additional files with the extension .xmp show up. Then I understand the need for write permission, though I hoped the external library could be kept clean.
