Hello,
I have a DS420j with the latest DSM (DSM 7.2.2-72806 Update 2) and the latest Synology Photos.
Photos does not show any photos any more.
1- At the beginning, there were just a few photos not showing previews, so Tried to reindex (in index services) with no effect. (terminates within 1 minute, nothing in the processes/CPU load seems to reindex)
2- Then I tried this script (GitHub - jmathai/synology-photos-reindexer: Simple script to call Synology Photo's reindex API that can be scheduled to run periodically.) wich I modified a little bit. It showed some movement with the "get" method of the
"SYNO.Foto.Index" API (showing the number of indexed items of each type)
Now it returns:
"data": {
"basic": 0,
"concept_detection": 0,
"face_extraction": 0,
"geo_coding": 0,
"metadata": 0,
"metadata_updating": 0,
"person_clustering": 0,
"thumbnail": 0
}

3- Then a day later all photos are gone. I updated the DSM and photos (from DSM 7.2.1 to 7.2.2) with no effect. The photos are still present in home/Photos, so no panic right now. But I have been trying quite a while to show all photos, and it just seem to get worse... :)
I have added 2 photos just to try, and these are being shown, just not the previous ones... The problem was present before the upgrade, the upgrade just didn't help...
