Images missing on many many memos?

[Heart1010]

Using v2.0.1 in my android phone and have two problems:

• with every update of the app I have to set again the API token and URL of my memos installation
• I have on ~50% ?!! of all my memos (which have an image attached) no image there in this app 🤔

Moe Memos 2.0 uses a more secure storage method on Android so you need to input API base and access token again, but you won't need in future (unless breaking changes related to signing in Memos, or switching between Mortis / direct connecting to Memos).

Please reply with the following info:

• The attachment storage you are using (database/local file system/S3)
• Whether you are using Mortis or not.
• Any error log in your memos container? (Or Mortis if you are using it)
• Try syncing again and see if the problem is resolved.
• Is there a placeholder for the missing images?

• local file system
• Mortis? Using memo docker image (latest)
• No
• nothing changes, I've scrolled down and down... in the attachment site in the app. After that I think many more attachements are there in the memos/notes but as said now about ~60% images are there (before it was ~20%?!
• no placeholder, simply no image there... when I browse my memos instance in the browser everything is there

It's weird. Can you see transparent placeholder (or the memo card be larger) like this:

When you edit the memo can the images be back? (Please do not save)

[Heart1010]

Nope, it looks like this. Every note should have an image....

P.S.: I don't know if it helps, but the missing images are mostly in older notes (from over 2 years ago).

That's unexpected. So it's not likely a downloading issue.

Please help debuging with the following steps:

1. Download a JSON file via curl -O -H 'Authorization: Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN>' https://<MEMOS_HOST>/api/v1/memos\?page_size\=10000.
2. Open with Visual Studio Code (or other IDE) and format JSON, and search for a memo with missing images in Moe Memos by its content.
3. Copy the "attachments": [...] part and paste it here.
4. For the missing image, please also search the name field (attachments/***) in the whole JSON document and see if there's any duplicates.

Let's see if there is anything unexpected in the Memos API response.

Example:

This is really strange.... attachments in the json is empty but there are the correct attachement(s) shown when viewing the note in the browser 🤔

[mudkipme]

Thanks a lot! I found the culprit: https://github.com/usememos/memos/blob/v0.26.1/store/attachment.go#L89

This is causing the ListMemos API to only return 100 attachments per call, even if we set a larger page_size. Since the web app’s default page size is only 10, you would need more than 100 attachments across 10 memos to reproduce this bug there.

To make syncing faster, Moe Memos uses a larger page size (200), so the bug appears whenever there are more than 100 attachments within those 200 memos.

I’ll submit a pull request to prevent setting the Limit in ListAttachments when MemoIDList is provided.

Looking good now with latest neosmemo/memos:canary docker image 👍Thanks!
