#9004

I checked that, and it’s not related to my issue.

I think the reason might be the DDOS attack on them, or that they are also currently getting an enormous amount of attention/requests.

@tjbck could you re-open this issue? I consistently have the same issue with WebUI 0.5.7 and DeepInfra's API. Occasionally DeepSeek R1 will complete, but 4 out of 5 times it will just hang. In the browser console, the error is "WebUI could not connect to Ollama". I have set max_tokens in the user interface to 80k, so that is not the problem. Answering hangs even while being well below that token limit. This is my configuration:

services:
  open-webui:
    container_name: 'open-webui'
    image: 'ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:main'
    volumes:
      - './open-webui:/app/backend/data:rw'
    ports:
      - '3003:8080'
    environment:
      ENABLE_SIGNUP: 'False'
      OPENAI_API_BASE_URLS: 'https://api.deepinfra.com/v1/openai'
    env_file:
      - 'OPENAI_API_KEYS.env'
      - 'WEBUI_SECRET_KEY.env'
    logging:
      driver: 'json-file'
      options:
        max-size: '10m'
        max-file: '10'
    extra_hosts:
      - 'host.docker.internal:host-gateway'
    restart: 'unless-stopped'
