Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/issues/16834

Check Existing Issues

I have searched the existing issues and discussions.
I am using the latest version of Open WebUI.

Installation Method

Docker

Open WebUI Version

v0.6.22 - v0.6.25

Ollama Version (if applicable)

No response

Operating System

Ubuntu 22.04

Browser (if applicable)

Chrome, Brave, Edge

Confirmation

I have read and followed all instructions in README.md.
I am using the latest version of both Open WebUI and Ollama.
I have included the browser console logs.
I have included the Docker container logs.
I have provided every relevant configuration, setting, and environment variable used in my setup.
I have clearly listed every relevant configuration, custom setting, environment variable, and command-line option that influences my setup (such as Docker Compose overrides, .env values, browser settings, authentication configurations, etc).
I have documented step-by-step reproduction instructions that are precise, sequential, and leave nothing to interpretation. My steps:
Start with the initial platform/version/OS and dependencies used,
Specify exact install/launch/configure commands,
List URLs visited, user input (incl. example values/emails/passwords if needed),
Describe all options and toggles enabled or changed,
Include any files or environmental changes,
Identify the expected and actual result at each stage,
Ensure any reasonably skilled user can follow and hit the same issue.

Expected Behavior

Choose a follow-up prompt

Actual Behavior

Follow-up prompts rarely get appended to chat

Steps to Reproduce

I am uncertain of how to recreate the issue ... maybe disabling all Ollama endpoints in admin settings/connections
I was hoping a newer version would clear up the intermittent problem.
I am testing LM Studio as an openai connection and the logs show the follow-up prompts get generated, but they rarely appear in the chat session no matter the browser [Chrome, Brave, Edge].

Enabling an Ollama endpoint in admin settings/connections gets rid of the JS/AJAX error in the browser console, but still no follow-up prompts appended to chat; and the follow-up prompts aren't always generated, took multiple retries to get a follow-up to appear in the LMS log.
