Facing the exact same issue, manually installing v0.17.1 doesn't help as well. Running ollama -v still shows 0.17.0.

BTW, this doesn't work - curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | OLLAMA_VERSION=0.17.1 sh

@soc8ren use OLLAMA_VERSION=0.17.1-rc2

-rc2 matches the tag on the github releases page.

@soc8ren 0.17.1 was released within the last few minutes. Use OLLAMA_VERSION=0.17.1 now

❯ curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | OLLAMA_VERSION=0.17.1 sh

Just tested on mac and linux with success.

Yup, I checked release pages and saw the assets for 0.17.1 had changed. So, reinstalled 0.17.1 using the command, but, it didn't fix the issue for me because only the client was updated to 0.17.1. What worked for me was this:-

  1. sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/ollama
  2. wget https://github.com/ollama/ollama/releases/download/v0.17.1/ollama-linux-amd64.tar.zst
  3. sudo tar xf ollama-linux-amd64.tar.zst -C /usr
  4. Restart ollama.
  5. Run ollama run or ollama pull
