What is the issue?

Last week I added ollama_models path to my env file in my Mac. Olama picked up the settings and saved the models to my path (external SSD). Now yesterday when I picked gemma 2 and got it downloaded it ignored the path and downloaded it to .ollama.

Server logs will aid in debugging, particularly the line that contains OLLAMA_MODELS. It's possible that another server is running, so the end of the server log showing recent activity to validate the server would also be useful.

I will check that, but both servers should use the same settings from the env.

Not sure what is happening. But it looks like a big change. My code is also not working anymore.
