Hi, I’m trying Photoprism and I have experienced the same problem that occurs with Transmission: before using it you need to launch in the console:  
`snap start photoprism`  
Being that I switch on/off remotely my Syncloud device without access to the console, would it be possible to fix this issue for both apps? Thanks a lot.  
p.s.it seems like Photoprism does not have a dedicated page here: [Home · syncloud/platform Wiki · GitHub](https://github.com/syncloud/platform/wiki)

I do not think anyone else is doing that.  
Can you describe your device?  
The best option is to get a new sd card, install new syncloud and try just photoprism on it to see if it has the problem you are describing in isolation.

Boris, I’m sorry, you can delete the thread.

1. Transmission: it seems like the behaviour is not repeatable. Today it works without “snap start etc.”. I have been obliged to do it several times in the past. In case the problem occurs again, I’ll share the logs immediately.
2. Photoprism: yesterday I tried it immediately after installation and before restarting my machine. After rebooting it works fine.  
Thanks
