Trying to login to the Open WebUI after upgrading it just sits at a blank screen with the 'OI' logo. Issue was that it was pointed at a remote Ollama server that was offline.
Installation Method
Debian 12 - python installation with local AND remote Ollama servers. Also using OpenAI connection if that matters.
Environment
Open WebUI Version: v0.5.16
Operating System: Debian 12
Confirmation:
[ X] I have read and followed all the instructions provided in the README.md.
[ X] I am on the latest version of both Open WebUI and Ollama.
[ X] I have included the browser console logs.
[ n/a] I have included the Docker container logs.
[ X] I have provided the exact steps to reproduce the bug in the "Steps to Reproduce" section below.
Expected Behavior:
The browser should be able to open the Open WebUI web console even if a remote Ollama server is offline
Actual Behavior:
You cannot even get to the login screen of the OWUI (in my case after an upgrade) when the remote Ollama server is offline
I am not using Docker, I'm using the python install.

Hi @tjbck, i just got into the same error here.
Wouldn't it be better if the intended behaviour to start OpenWebUI client and show an error that one of the servers is ofline.
Why wouldn't the OpenWebUI app load if only one of the ollama servers i setup is inaccessible ?
Seems like a bug to me.
