Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/475

Importing a local model fails on MacOS:

Parsing modelfile
Looking for model
⠋ Creating model layer Error: Invalid file magic

Here is the content of my Modelfile:

FROM ./ggml-Llama2-Chinese-13b-Chat-q4_k_m.ggmlv3.Q4_K_M.bin

TEMPLATE """
{{- if .First }}
<<SYS>>
{{ .System }}
<</SYS>>
{{- end }}
"""

The model file is located in the same directory as the Modelfile.

Any suggestions are welcome.

@tianxiemaochiyu where did the model bin come from? The error suggests it's not a known file type.

@tianxiemaochiyu Wanted to suggest that we have the chinese llama 2 model as well.

For the 4 bit quantized model that you're using, you can simply run:
ollama pull llama2-chinese:13b-chat-q4_K_M
or run it with:
ollama run llama2-chinese:13b-chat-q4_K_M

That error indicates that at least at the time of this issue, you were using the older python-based ollama. You will need to uninstall that and then grab the current ollama from ollama.ai and install that. I think that should solve the issue and will go ahead and close it now. If you think there is anything we left out, reopen and we can address. Thanks for being part of this great community.
