Bug Report

Installation Method

pip install with Python 3.11

Environment

Open WebUI Version: 0.5.4
Ollama (if applicable): 0.5.4
Operating System: Mac OSX Sonoma (M3 max chip with 64GB of RAM)
Browser (if applicable): Firefox & Chrome

Confirmation:

[ x] I have read and followed all the instructions provided in the README.md.
[x ] I am on the latest version of both Open WebUI and Ollama.
[x ] I have included the browser console logs.
[x ] I have included the Docker container logs.
[ x] I have provided the exact steps to reproduce the bug in the "Steps to Reproduce" section below.

Expected Behavior:

When using a pipe that emits several status messages before ultimately returning the final chat results, I would expect to see every status message emitted and the final chat result show up, without refreshing the browser.

Actual Behavior:

Status messages begin being shown in the browser, but after the first few, they stop being received, even though I can see in the Open WebUI server logs that they are being emitted. I can see in the server logs when the final chat response is returned, however it is not automatically displayed in the chat when. When I refresh the browser window, however, it does fetch the final chat result. However the interim event messages are gone.

Description

Reproduction Details

Steps to Reproduce:
This behavior is produced when using a specific Pipe that I authored. It is a fairly involved pipe that makes several calls to the LLM in succession. It worked fine in Open WebUI 0.4.x - I never needed to refresh the browser to see the chat result. I am also using a local model with Ollama. Here is the link to the source code you can run: https://github.com/ibm-granite-community/granite-retrieval-agent

Logs and Screenshots

Screenshots/Screen Recordings (if applicable):
Before refreshing the browser... The status messages start showing up but stop after the first few:

After refreshing the browser.. I can see the final chat result
