Bug Report

Installation Method

Two installations were tested. The error could be found in both of them:

  • The first is through the NixOS module using nixpkgs-unstable. The version is specifically v0.5.12.
  • The second is a fresh docker environment setup specifically for the purpose of testing this bug.

Environment

  • Open WebUI Version: v0.5.12
  • Operating System: NixOS 24.11
  • Browser (probably irrelevant): Firefox
  • OpenAI API Provider: openrouter

Confirmation:

  • I have read and followed all the instructions provided in the README.md.
  • I am on the latest version of both Open WebUI and Ollama.
  • I have included the browser console logs.
  • I have included the NixOS webui systemd service logs.
  • I have provided the exact steps to reproduce the bug in the "Steps to Reproduce" section below.

Expected Behavior:

You get a response after using a model that is linked through a user-level direct API connection.

Actual Behavior:

You get an error message 'owned_by' as seen in the following image:

Description

Bug Summary:
When using models through a direct openrouter OpenAI API connection, the models always give an error. Meanwhile, using the same models with the same prompts, with the same API keys and gateway but on the website level from the admin configuration consistently works as opposed to using the model directly.

Reproduction Details

Steps to Reproduce:
0. (may or may not be relevant) Get an openrouter API key.

  1. Install Open WebUI. The bug has been tested and found in both the Docker container and NixOS module so both work.
  2. Configure the API on two levels: website level from the admin console, and user-level from the user settings.
  3. run the same model and the same prompt but through direct connection and then through the application-wide API.
  4. Observe that the first gives an error while the latter works just fine.
