Check Existing Issues

  • I have searched for any existing and/or related issues.
  • I have searched for any existing and/or related discussions.
  • I am using the latest version of Open WebUI.

Installation Method

Docker

Open WebUI Version

v0.6.32

Ollama Version (if applicable)

No

Operating System

Ubuntu 22.04

Browser (if applicable)

Any

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

When you click the "Explain" button, a request should be sent to the OpenWeb UI API and a request should be sent to the Openal (Compatible) server, and a response should be returned.

Actual Behavior

In this case, a 400 (Bad request) error occurs if the model is used locally through the direct connection settings. This error occurs because the "Explain" button does not see the local models, and in response to the CURL request, it sends a response stating that only OpenRouter models are available, even though I have local (Direct connection) models.

curl -H "Cookie: token=AUTH_TOKEN" http://192.168.0.250:8636/api/models

Image

Only 17 models are shown here, but there are many more.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Set up Direct Connection via Setting with non root user.
  2. Send Test message
  3. Select text in answer and click "Explain"

Logs & Screenshots

I think no logs needed

Additional Information

No error, while i set up non direct connection in admin panel
