Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/2491

I want to install the ollama on my ubuntu server but every few days new version of ollama gets installed. I want to fix the version of the ollama getting installed on my machine. Current install.sh doesn't seem to have that functionality. IS there any way?

What do you mean by fix the version of the ollama getting installed? Do you mean you want to keep a specific version installed?

Yes. Previously I was using ollama 0.1.20, now I am getting 0.1.24. It want to stick to one version even if latest versions come up lets say too 0.1.20. How to do it.

Latest install giving me:
root@5882e714c697:/usr/src# ollama --version
ollama version is 0.1.24

By default Ollama won't auto upgrade on Linux

However, you can run this script to install a previous version:

curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sed 's#https://ollama.com/download#https://github.com/jmorganca/ollama/releases/download/v0.1.25#' | sh

Note this is experimental and may not work forever

for me your commando for installing specific version does not work anymore, it allways installs the actual version (0.1.25) on my jetson orin AGX
even if i use:

curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sed 's#https://ollama.com/download#https://github.com/jmorganca/ollama/releases/download/v0.1.27#' | sh

on the jetson xavier agx i used it to install 0.1.17, after i recognized that starting with 0.1.18 it doesnt find the gpu drivers anymore, so i downgraded.

@telemetrieTP23 I'm working on adding Jetson support. In the mean time, I have a preliminary build available that should work on your Orin AGX until it's fully integrated into the official release: https://github.com/remy415/ollama.

To save you time, ensure that you set the following environment variables:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/cuda/lib64:/usr/local/cuda/compat:/usr/local/cuda/include"
export OLLAMA_SKIP_CPU_GENERATE="1"

Also set one of the following based on which Jetpack you are using:

L4T_VERSION.major >= 36: # JetPack 6
export CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES="87"

L4T_VERSION.major >= 34: # JetPack 5
export CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES="72;87"

L4T_VERSION.major == 32: # JetPack 4
export CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES="53;62;72"

@telemetrieTP23 yes, you should be able to build from my fork.

I made a typo on the exports for CUDA_ARCHITECTURE. I corrected my original post, sorry about that.

It’s export CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES

This works now:

Working actually, as stated in https://docs.ollama.com/linux :

curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | OLLAMA_VERSION=0.11.11 sh

This command didn't work for me. It installs:

$ollama --version
ollama version is 0.14.2
Warning: client version is 0.13.3

Here's what worked for me:

I went to releases page and found the link to tarball compatible for my machine and os: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/releases

# 1. Force stop and purge the snap (skipping snapshots)
sudo snap stop ollama
sudo snap remove --purge ollama

# 2. Kill any remaining background processes
sudo killall ollama 2>/dev/null

# 3. Prepare directory for ollama
sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/ollama

# 4. Downloaded the 0.13.3 tarball (change 0.13.3 with the version you would prefer)
curl -L https://github.com/ollama/ollama/releases/download/v0.13.3/ollama-linux-amd64.tgz -o ollama-0.13.3.tgz

# 5. Extract to /usr/share/ollama
sudo tar -C /usr/share/ollama -xzf ollama-0.13.3.tgz

# 6. Create the symlink so 'ollama' command works globally
sudo ln -sf /usr/share/ollama/bin/ollama /usr/local/bin/ollama

# 7. Create the service file
sudo bash -c 'cat <<EOF > /etc/systemd/system/ollama.service
[Unit]
Description=Ollama Service
After=network-online.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/ollama serve

Environment="PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"

[Install]

EOF'

# 8. Reload, enable, and start the service
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable ollama
sudo systemctl start ollama
