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

Docker

Open WebUI Version

v0.8.1

Ollama Version (if applicable)

No response

Operating System

Debian 13

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

The failed call should display the Bing URL

Actual Behavior

When the web search engine uses DDGS with the backend set to Bing,

The model call failed with the following result:

{
  "query": "鸿凯德车载电台 优缺点 缺点 使用体验",
  "count": 5
}
{
  "error": "HTTPError: HTTPError('HTTP 403 Forbidden for URL: https://www.mojeek.com/search?q=%E9%B8%BF%E5%87%AF%E5%BE%B7%E8%BD%A6%E8%BD%BD%E7%94%B5%E5%8F%B0+%E4%BC%98%E7%BC%BA%E7%82%B9+%E7%BC%BA%E7%82%B9+%E4%BD%BF%E7%94%A8%E4%BD%93%E9%AA%8C', 403, 'https://www.mojeek.com/search?q=%E9%B8%BF%E5%87%AF%E5%BE%B7%E8%BD%A6%E8%BD%BD%E7%94%B5%E5%8F%B0+%E4%BC%98%E7%BC%BA%E7%82%B9+%E7%BC%BA%E7%82%B9+%E4%BD%BF%E7%94%A8%E4%BD%93%E9%AA%8C', 'Forbidden')"
}

DDGS does not seem to be using the Bing URL. Can DDGS accept the backend being set to Bing?

Steps to Reproduce

Set the DDGS backend to Bing and save, then let the AI call the web search normally
