Your ollama server is out of date. You need to figure out where it's running and update it. Have you set OLLAMA_HOST in your bash environment? What's the output of sudo systemctl status ollama? What's the output of journalctl -u ollama --no-pager?

I had the same issue, but it only occurs on the mistral-small3.1 model. And Ollama is up to date.

ollama run mistral-small3.1
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


Steps I followed:

  1. Stop the currently running Ollama server (PID: 55012) by issuing a kill command:
    kill 55012
  2. Update Ollama using Homebrew:
    brew update
    brew upgrade ollama
  3. Restart the Ollama server after it has been successfully updated:
    /opt/homebrew/opt/ollama/bin/ollama serve

My own solution management (no restart required)
Version v0.14.2 was installed, but I was getting an error when I tried to download the model. When I checked the https://github.com/ollama/ollama/releases page, I saw that v0.14.3 pre-release had been published 3 days ago, so I installed it and it worked. I was able to download the models this way.

So if you're getting the same error, check the releases page. Most likely, a different version has been released. (Since it's a pre-release, they probably haven't added it to the website, brew, or Docker image.)

I'm on Ubuntu, ollama version is 0.15.4. I have a script to update and it's worked flawlessly til now. Now I'm getting the same error 412. My script is below, so wtf has changed? Why are new models being posted when the proper version of Ollama isn't available?

  install_ollama(){
  cp /etc/systemd/system/ollama.service /etc/systemd/system/ollama.service.BAK
  curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh
  cp /etc/systemd/system/ollama.service.BAK /etc/systemd/system/ollama.service

  systemctl restart ollama

What model are you trying to pull?

Also, you can store your configuration changes in /etc/systemd/system/ollama.service.d/override.conf and you won't have to play shell games with BAK files.

I'm guessing it's glm-ocr.

Yes, but that image you posted wasn't visible and it isn't clear that what pre-release means in this context. If it's being published, then it should be the version that's available if I upgrade, not some behind the scenes version that requires a special incantation. If it's alpha/beta, that should be clearer with a link.

The image wasn't visible because I have my theme set to dark mode and the text was faded. It's strange that it's visible here but not on the download page.

I had installed via snap and had to do this to remove completely.

Steps to Resolve
Identify the stuck process:
Run the following command to see pending or stuck snap tasks:

snap changes

Look for a row where "ollama" is mentioned and the status is "Doing" or "Error". Note the corresponding number in the ID column.
Abort the stuck task

Use the ID from the previous step to abort the process (replace with the actual number, e.g., 12):

sudo snap abort

If the task is still stuck, you might need to use sudo snap abort --last=ollama or find the process ID (PID) and kill it, though snap abort is usually sufficient.

Retry removing Ollama:
Once the change is aborted, try removing the snap again:

sudo snap remove ollama

Alternative: Force Remove
If the above does not work, you may need to try removing the snap while ignoring the current state, though this is less conventional:

sudo snap remove --purge ollama
