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
On a fresh docker instance when I click on the chat button of a note as an admin user
The chat window opens correctly
Actual Behavior
When I click on the chat button as a regular user the chat window shows for a split second then I'm redirected to the home page.
Steps to Reproduce
Launch a fresh Docker instance of v0.6.16
Create a regular user
Log in with the regular user
Create a note
Click on the chat icon on the top right corner

This is the Docker log of the process of opening the note and then clicking on the chat button for an admin user:
