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

v0.6.43

Ollama Version (if applicable)

No response

Operating System

Debian 12

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

Export All Chats should export the chats.

Actual Behavior

A 500 (Internal Server Error is returned)

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Clean install on Debian.
  2. Pull and run the container, with a bind mount for the data.
  3. Visit the chat interface
  4. Add open AI compatible endpoint (openrouter)
  5. Complete a chat, all chat features work fine.
  6. Go to account > data controls > export all chats
  7. Click on the button, nothing happens, on the browser console a 500 response code is returned.
  8. Which triggers subsequent error Uncaught (in promise) SyntaxError: Unexpected token 'I', "Internal S"... is not valid JSON
  9. Server logs attached.

I am able to reproduce this issue on the latest dev commit. https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/issues/20206 is certainly related.
