Check Existing Issues

  • I have searched for any existing and/or related issues.
  • I have searched for any existing and/or related discussions.
  • I have also searched in the CLOSED issues AND CLOSED discussions and found no related items (your issue might already be addressed on the development branch!).
  • I am using the latest version of Open WebUI.

Installation Method

Git Clone

Open WebUI Version

latest

Ollama Version (if applicable)

No response

Operating System

Windows 10

Browser (if applicable)

No response

Confirmation

  • I have read and followed all instructions in README.md.
  • I am using the latest version of both Open WebUI and Ollama.
  • I have included the browser console logs.
  • I have included the Docker container logs.
  • I have provided every relevant configuration, setting, and environment variable used in my setup.
  • I have clearly listed every relevant configuration, custom setting, environment variable, and command-line option that influences my setup (such as Docker Compose overrides, .env values, browser settings, authentication configurations, etc).
  • I have documented step-by-step reproduction instructions that are precise, sequential, and leave nothing to interpretation. My steps:
  • Start with the initial platform/version/OS and dependencies used,
  • Specify exact install/launch/configure commands,
  • List URLs visited, user input (incl. example values/emails/passwords if needed),
  • Describe all options and toggles enabled or changed,
  • Include any files or environmental changes,
  • Identify the expected and actual result at each stage,
  • Ensure any reasonably skilled user can follow and hit the same issue.

Expected Behavior

API should return a structured response with:

results: processed files

errors: failed files with status="failed"

Actual Behavior

API crashes with a Pydantic validation error

No valid response is returned to the client

Steps to Reproduce

Call POST /process/files/batch

Ensure vector DB insertion fails (e.g., invalid embedding dimension, connection issue)

API crashes instead of returning a valid error response

Proposed Fix

Always include the required status field when creating BatchProcessFilesResult:

BatchProcessFilesResult(
file_id=result.file_id,
status="failed",
error=str(e)
)

Logs & Screenshots

Root Cause

BatchProcessFilesResult requires the status field:

class BatchProcessFilesResult(BaseModel):
file_id: str
status: str
error: Optional[str] = None

But in the vector DB failure handler, it is created without status:

BatchProcessFilesResult(
file_id=result.file_id,
error=str(e)
)

Additional Information

Root Cause

BatchProcessFilesResult requires the status field:

class BatchProcessFilesResult(BaseModel):
file_id: str
status: str
error: Optional[str] = None

But in the vector DB failure handler, it is created without status:

BatchProcessFilesResult(
file_id=result.file_id,
error=str(e)
)
