Hi @Shihab-Shahriar, can you describe briefly how this server was installed? Is it using a base image from a cloud provider (AWS, GCP, etc.), installed using Ubuntu's ISO, or a container?

I didn't really install anything. I thought all I had to do was run that command:

curl https://ollama.ai/install.sh | sh

You shouldn't need to install anything in order to run the install script however I need to better understand how the system is setup to reproduce this issue. For example, my test using GCP's Ubuntu 22.04 LTS image succeeds without errors.

I'm sorry I missed part of your question last time. I tried that command on the terminal of my local desktop.

It has to do with Curl, I had the same issue. Please try the following and it fixed the problem.
$ sudo snap remove curl
$ sudo apt install curl

This seems to be an issue with the installed curl, not the install script.

I am having the same issue with Ubuntu 22.04. I have ROS2 and Nvidia dependencies for this distro, so changing distro is not an option. Datafields solution above worked for me too! *** SOLUTION ABOVE *** https://github.com/jmorganca/ollama/issues/666#issuecomment-1774195112
