Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/6293

What is the issue?

When trying to pull models from the official Ollama registry - if you're building Ollama from source it now seems to fail with an error that your Ollama version is too old.

ollama pull llama3.1:8b-instruct-q8_0
pulling manifest
Error: pull model manifest: 412:

The model you are attempting to pull requires a newer version of Ollama.

Please download the latest version at:

	https://ollama.com/download

However I highly doubt my Ollama version is too old as I bought it from source every day.

ollama --version
ollama version is e9aa5117c409c94861af1c50b246f29a72d05147

OS

Linux, Docker

GPU

Nvidia

CPU

AMD

Ollama version

Typically the default version for local builds shows up as 0.0.0

./ollama --version
Warning: could not connect to a running Ollama instance
Warning: client version is 0.0.0

Are you doing anything special to get the hash version string? How did you build?

(we do handle the 0.0.0 version properly and bypass the version checks for model compatibility)

Ah, yes indeed - I am setting it to the commit SHA as I thought 0.0.0 was a bug actually!

FYI 0.0.0 was causing some Ollama clients (I can't remember which right now) to error stating the version was too old as I'm assuming they're doing something simple like checking =< .

Thanks for the tip Daniel :)

Check out the various ./scripts/build* scripts for how we set the version using git describe which will incorporate the nearest git tag, plus your hash, so that can be useful if you want a more "real" version string.

That's actually really useful, thank you.

Can confirm swapping back to 0.0.0 works for pulling now as well.

Hi @dhiltgen!
On a fresh install docker run -d --gpus=all -v ollama:/root/.ollama -p 11434:11434 --name ollama ollama/ollama and then docker exec -it ollama ollama pull llama3.1 I get:

pulling manifest 
Error: pull model manifest: 412: 

The model you are attempting to pull requires a newer version of Ollama.

Please download the latest version at:

        https://ollama.com/download

Am I missing something?

你好@dhiltgen！ 全新安裝docker run -d --gpus=all -v ollama:/root/.ollama -p 11434:11434 --name ollama ollama/ollama後docker exec -it ollama ollama pull llama3.1我得到：

我錯過了什麼嗎？

I am also facing this problem for pulling llama3.1 and I just pull the newest ollama docker.
May I ask whether you figure it out?

Can you check which version of Ollama is in your container image? Have you run a docker pull ollama/ollama to update the image to the latest version? I just pulled ollama/ollama:latest which contains version 0.3.5 and was able to pull llama3.1.
