Paperless-ngx | Wechsel von Broker Redis zu Valkey. Wie? Endlosschleife (Degraded)

DHC · 19. August 2026

Ich habe mal eine Frage an die Spezialisten hier zum Thema Docker/Podman bzw. Paperless-ngx.

Die Entwickler haben den Broker von Redis zu Valkey gewechselt. Warum auch immer.

Ich habe die "compose.yml" entsprechend angepasst und die Images gezogen und upgedated (pull / up -d).
Der Broker startet und stoppt nun in einer Endlosschleife und das Ensemble wird aus degraded angezeigt.

Nun habe ich gelesen (KI), dass man eine Datei "dump.rdb" im Ordner "redisdata" löschen sollte.
Nur finde ich den leider nirgends.

Hat schon jemand ein aktuelles Update von Paperless-ngx gemacht? Sprich Wechsel von Redis zu Valkey?
Wie kann man die Problematik lösen?

Ich wäre sehr dankbar für Hilfen und Anregungen.

Hab gelesen, dass man auch einfach einen anderen Ordner/Volume angeben kann. Ansonsten kommt es halt drauf an wie deine Volumes sind um zu wissen wo die Datei liegt.
Vermutlich kann man dann auch einfach das Volume löschen (immer Backup!)

SB94 · 19. August 2026

docker volume ls und dann mit dem entsprechenden „redisdata“ volume docker volume inspect [VOLUME_NAME von vorher] dann kannst du dort im mountpoint dir das directory redisdata angucken.

DHC · 19. August 2026

Wenn ich das Ganze richtig verstehe, werden die Ordner von/zu Docker-Container gemappt.
Z. B.:
volumes:
- redisdata:/data
Der Linke Teil vor dem Doppelpunkt ist der Ordner im System. Der rechte Teil nach dem Doppelpunkt ist der Ordner im Container.
Demnach müsste man den Ordner ja auch finden können.

Die Volumes unter Webserver finde ich ja.
Nur nicht das Volume unter Redis.
Der Unterschied ist, dass dort kein / vor dem Ordnernamen ist.

Da bekomme ich nun drei Sachen angezeigt. Obwohl ich nur zwei Instanzen habe.

Da habe ich nun tatsächlich Infos gefunden. Ich werde das mal checken.

Ergänzung (19. August 2026)

Tatsächlich. Da gibt es eine dumb.rdb.
Da muss man aber auch erst einmal darauf kommen.

@SB94
Danke. Du hast mir sehr geholfen.

SB94 · 19. August 2026

redisdata ist ein volumen, das von docker erstellt und verwaltet wird, während die anderen "volumen" (die mit /) einfach nur ordner mappen.
wie schon gesagt docker volume ls und dann docker volume inspect [VOLUME_NAME von vorher]. dort wird dann unter anderem der mountpoint angegeben.

alternativ kannst du auch aus dem docker container heraus in den ordner mit erst
docker container ls | grep "broker" die letzte spalte ist der name des broker containers und dann docker exec -it [NAME des Broker containers von vorher] /bin/bash dann ist dort der pfad unter /data

Dann kann ich ja einfach alle Ordner löschen, die "_redisdata" enthalten.
Dann werden die ja eh wieder neu erstellt.

Aktuell bin ich erst mal wieder zurück zu Redis.
Morgen oder vielleicht auch später werde ich das Ganze noch mal mit Valkey probieren.
Ich habe ja ein Backup der Daten und ...-compose.yml angelegt.

Hat schon jemand den Sprung von V. 2 auf V. 3 überstanden und das Ganze zum Laufen bekommen?

Die Problematik mit dem Broker, sprich Wechsel von Redis zu Valkey habe ich hinbekommen.
Nun will aber der Webserver nicht mehr sein Arbeit verrichten.
Aus Auslastung schwankt alle paar Sekunden zwischen 0 % und > 100 %. Ausgewertet mit Cockpit.
Die Seite lässt sich erst gar nicht aufrufen.

Ich wäre für Hilfe, bzw. einige Tipps sehr dankbar.

Edit:
Ich bin jetzt Testweise wieder zurück auf V. 2.20 mit Redis.
Da läuft alles, wie gewünscht.
Sobald ich auf V. 3.x.x (lastest) gehe, funktioniert nichts mehr.

Meistens steht im log file welches Problem besteht.
Das hat mir bisher immer zu Klarheit geführt

Wo finde ich das?

Im Cockpit sehe ich im Container Protokoll entsprechende Meldungen.
Bei V. 2.20 ist nach dem Start keine Aktivität mehr im Fenster Protokolle.
Bei V. 3.x dagegen ist da sehr viel los unter Protokolle (Meldungen).

Ich kann ja noch mal hochziehen auf V. 3. Mal schauen, was man da so an Meldungen sieht.

Nun funktioniert alles.

Code:

django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: PAPERLESS_SECRET_KEY is not set or is the default 'change-me' value. A unique, secret key is required for secure operation. Generate one with: python3 -c "import secrets; print(secrets.token_urlsafe(64))"

In der Meldung aus dem Protokoll steht, dass kein PAPERLESS_SECRET_KEY vorhanden wäre.
Die Aussage ist aber falsch. Ich hatte einen Key hinterlegt.
Nun habe ich halt einen neuen Key angelegt. Und siehe da. Nun läuft alles.

Warum einfach, wenn es auch kompliziert geht.

Genau in den Fehler bin ich auch reingelaufen...
Blöderweise sind auf der Github Seite bei den Releases keine Breaking Changes vermerkt...

Wäre ja schön gewesen, es gibt einen kurzen Hinweis mit Link auf die Docs https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/migration-v3/

Da war ich auch schon.
Das ist aber alles zum Teil sehr speziell.

Ich hatte einen Key seit meiner Erstinstallation hinterlegt.
Nur wurde der bei < V. 3 nicht verwendet oder ausgewertet. Vermute ich mal.
Nachdem ich, wie ich schon schrieb, neu generierte Keys eingetragen habe, funktionierte alles wieder.

Beim Wechsel auf V. 3 musste ich in der compose.yml nur einen Eintrag hinzufügen. ...DBENGINE. Und halt den Key in compose.env neu anlegen. Das wars.

Mal schauen, was man dann wieder verbiegen muss, wenn V. 4 mal heraus kommt.
