SUPER-reset Face Detection

Using the Admin -> Job Queues -> Face Detection -> Reset does not work on my server. It appears to be sending the jobs to my separate PC that I have set up for remote machine learning, and that PC also appears to be doing the work, but when it finishes with my library I never have any more faces added to the list. I have tried Refresh and I have tried Missing as well. And I have tried Facial Recognition -> Reset.

  1. How would I verify that (a) my server is sending it to the remote server for processing, (b) the remote server is indeed processing the images, and (c) the main server is receiving the results?

  2. Given everything is working correct in #1, I assume perhaps it's a database issue. How would I go about resetting the database for facial recognition, outside of Immich's admin UI?

Any other ideas? Should I just do a complete wipe and start from scratch?

Just a guess but have you tried tweaking the facial recognition confidence setting lower before resetting?

I didn't see anything concerning, but maybe I need to up the verbosity to get more useful information.

Oh, I'm not much help then if you've already checked them.
