@mbelur well, that is good. At least the error is reproducible. Hopefully, someone can get to it.

I prefer using Chroma DB, but tested with Chroma, Milvus, Ollama, and the built-in sentence transformer. Best results for me so far was with jina-embeddings-v3 + mxbai-rerank-xsmall-v1 reranker. Ollama with mxbai-emded-large:latest + cross-encoder/ms-marco-MiniLM-L-6-v2. I can't run a stronger reranker.

In case someone comes across this in the future, this issue is most likely caused by a version mismatch between an external chromadb and internal open-webui chromadb package version, I was able to reproduce the issue with the latest chromadb image with the current main. After the version bump in the latest dev, I'm no longer able to reproduce the issue.
