Hi OpenWebUI Team,
when i start the openwebui stack with docker-compose the container is running, but it takes up too ten minutes until the uvicorn process is started. why is this so. Maybe a docker network problem. In Attachments are the docker compose file and the bootlog of the docker container.

Kind of regards

That's definitely unusual behavior, I've never seen it take more than ~15-30 seconds. Are you upgrading from a previous version on startup? Does it happen every time, or just once?

Best guess without more information would be that the ollama backend you've got configured there isn't accessible and its waiting for it to timeout. Try starting it up with nothing configured (no ollama) and compare the results
