Check Existing Issues

  • I have searched for any existing and/or related issues.
  • I have searched for any existing and/or related discussions.
  • I have also searched in the CLOSED issues AND CLOSED discussions and found no related items (your issue might already be addressed on the development branch!).
  • I am using the latest version of Open WebUI.

Installation Method

Git Clone

Open WebUI Version

v0.6.43

Ollama Version (if applicable)

No response

Operating System

Ubuntu 22.04

Browser (if applicable)

No response

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

WEB_SEARCH_DOMAIN_FILTER_LIST can be specified via an environment variable

Actual Behavior

WEB_SEARCH_DOMAIN_FILTER_LIST cannot be specified via an environment variable

Steps to Reproduce

https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/blob/v0.6.43/backend/open_webui/config.py#L2983-L2992
I think os.getenv is missing here.

It's a persistent config variable as per the docs.

Image Perhaps then this should be removed from the Environment Variable Configuration section.

Why should it be removed? Then we would have to remove (idk) 80% of environment variables just because they are persistent config? On the very very very top of the page there is a nice and easy to understand description/explanation of persistent config. Read it and then go to the admin panel and configure it there.

Of course, I won't be configuring my environments using buttons and web interfaces. Thanks again, I just wanted fewer of my own patches.

@leagueofsoups then turn off persistent config. That's an option too.

https://docs.openwebui.com/getting-started/env-configuration#important-note-on-persistentconfig-environment-variables

As I already recommended: read this! It explains clearly how you can turn off persistent config.
