Describe the Bug

Hello. I have an old Nextcloud setup with about 500G of photos.
It tooks more than a day to recognize them, so recognize:classify process dies probably because of PHP process timeout. During that day, it classifies about 35K of photos.
After relaunching a classification process, Recognize handles already classified from a first run photos ignoring a --retry key, so like 2/3 of files stay untouched. Tags count in the database stays at 35K without any changes despite the classify progress reports

Expected Behavior

Recognize skips classified photos and handles fresh ones

To Reproduce

Env quirks which may affect smth:

  • Proxmox + Turnkey Nextcloud container image
  • NC data folder is a symlink to a mounted secondary storage: /var/www/nextcloud-data -> /nextcloud-data
  1. Run turnkey-occ recognize:classify
  2. wait a process to die
  3. rerun a process: turnkey-occ recognize:classify --retry
Debug log

Research direction

Start at the recognize:classify command and trace how the --retry option handles images that already have recognition tags. Reproduce the interrupted run and rerun with --retry in a comparable Nextcloud setup, then verify that previously classified photos are skipped while remaining photos receive tags and progress matches the database.
