What is the issue?

Hi guys,
I just updated ollama to the latest version (0.5.13) and all my apps using embedding models served through it (OpenWebUI and Perplexica) suddenly became unable to load the models and use them. After inspecting the logs, this is what I found:

Error generating ollama batch embeddings: 500

It seems to happen with all locally-installed embedding models and both with Perplexica and OpenWebUI. Reinstalling the models does not help. The only way to solve this, at the moment, is to downgrade Ollama to 0.5.12.

Does someone else encounter the same issue? Can you help me troubleshoot it? Thanks!

Possibly #9511. Server logs will confirm.

Merging with https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/9511, but let me know if it's a separate issue. Sorry this happened!
