Check Existing Issues

  • I have searched the existing issues and discussions.
  • I am using the latest version of Open WebUI.

Installation Method

Docker

Open WebUI Version

v0.5.20

Ollama Version (if applicable)

n/a

Operating System

Debian 12

Browser (if applicable)

n/a

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 listed steps to reproduce the bug in detail.

Expected Behavior

Web Search using Searxng(although I suspect this would happen with other providers) should preform search return results to ollama and process.

Actual Behavior

Upon starting web search if the results return a bad link(down website etc.) process hangs while attempting to retry. Ideally openWebUI should either immediately discard the bad link or process in parallel so it doesn't hang the front end query.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. New chat.
  2. Enter Query
  3. Toggle Web Search
  4. Wait...
