Hi,

Your environment looks incorrect, see:

0399a69b73/docker-compose.yaml (L27-L29)

Try something like - 'OLLAMA_BASE_URL=http://ollama:7869'

I think a few issues are colliding together here. The OLLAMA_BASE_URL should just be http://ollama:11434 because the ollama container will not be reachable from port 7869 from the open-webui container.

Also the /api at the end of the URLs indicates an outdated open-webui. What version of both are actually running? Try doing a docker compose pull before starting the two to make sure you're up-to-date.
