I have checked the Docker container logs.
I have listed steps to reproduce the bug in detail.
Expected Behavior
Display knowledge content normally.
Actual Behavior
{"detail":"We could not find what you're looking for :/"}
Steps to Reproduce
Under the admin user, create a knowledge base and upload knowledge, setting the knowledge base permission to public.
Another user A, not admin, is the default user role. In the chat window, use # to call the knowledge base. I am a user logging in using LDAP here.
After answering, I clicked on the PDF reference in the answer, and a new window popped up saying {"detail":"We could not find what you're looking for :/"}
User A cannot find the knowledge base created by admin in the workspace ->knowledge base, but the knowledge base created by admin is indeed public.
This document can be viewed normally under the admin account.
