What is the issue?

Hi,

I just downloaded the Linux tarball from the v0.7.0 release
After extracting and running:

bin/ollama --version

it shows:

ollama version is 0.6.2
Warning: client version is 0.7.0

it looks like the ollama-linux-amd64.tgz archive still contains the old 0.6.2 binary, not 0.7.0.

Thanks

The client that you ran, bin/ollama, is version 0.7.0. It connected to a running server that was 0.6.2.

I don't have any other ollama installed.
So if I execute the binary even from the tarball (ollama-linux-amd64.tgz)

./bin/ollama --version
ollama version is 0.6.2
Warning: client version is 0.7.0

That is correct?

And after this when I run

ollama run qwen3:0.6b
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

So I downloaded the tarball and...

if I execute the binary even from the tarball (ollama-linux-amd64.tgz)

./bin/ollama --version
ollama version is 0.6.2
Warning: client version is 0.7.0

How could I break this loop?

thanks in advance

You need to restart the server using the new binary. The current server is 0.6.2, stop it (kill $(pidof ollama)) and then start a server using the new binary (bin/ollama serve). If you have your ollama server managed by systemd, then you can stop it with sudo systemctl stop ollama, adjust the path to the new ollama binary with sudo systemctl edit ollama, and then start the new server with sudo systemctl start ollama.

Yes, of course... but the only ollama I have on my system is /usr/local/bin/ollama and I copied it from the tarball
I already have deleted / restarted everything several times.

Thanks

Some details on your configuration may make it easier to determine what's happening.

What are the results of the following:

command -v ollama
ls -l $(command -v ollama)
systemctl cat ollama
ls -l $(dirname $(dirname $(command -v ollama)))/lib/ollama
ps wwho ppid,pid,lstart,cmd p$(pidof ollama)

Sorry to bother you.
