This wasn’t an issue in earlier versions.

Installation Method

New installation on Win10 via pip, database is Postgres

Environment

  • **Open WebUI Version: 0.5.4
  • **Operating System: Win 10

Issue

open_webui.routers.openai get_all_models()

gets invoked on the startup, but openai is blocked on corporate firewall and cannot be unblocked. (that’s why we’re using open-webui in the first place)

UI fails to load.

There doesn’t seem to be a way around it. Trying to downgrade and find whichever version we had before that worked

0.5.1 times out in an orderly manner

Try setting AIOHTTP_CLIENT_TIMEOUT_OPENAI_MODEL_LIST to 5
