I use Label Studio on a server. To serve label studio on https I use nginx. The server has a hard drive on which the data is stored. The connection with local storage has worked, but I get the following error when I try to load the images in the labeling interface

 ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex035/uploads/labelstudio/original/1X/6a5fc2e2351709d8b222abf10a4c4502a7b09de7.png)

The image does not appear to be available at https://ip\_adress/data/local-files/?d=Image\_Storage/compressed\_image\_12\_2025-01-22.png, but when I manually change the URL to https://ip\_adress/data/local-files/compressed\_image\_12\_2025-01-22.png, the image loads.

How do I get the image to load correctly in my labeling interface?

**version of Label Studio**  
Label Studio version: 1.16.0 installed by pip

**labeling configuration.**

```
<View className="image-container">
  <Image name="image" value="$image_url" zoom="true" zoomControl="true"/>
</View>

```

**Nginx Configuration**

```
