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

Other

Open WebUI Version

0.8.10

Ollama Version (if applicable)

n/a

Operating System

Arch Linux -> Fedora Distrobox

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

Running the command from the documentation downloads and runs openwebui serve as expected

Actual Behavior

Execution fails during dependency resolution, noting that DDGS 9.11.2 cannot be found.
According to the changelog in DDGS v9.11.3, the version 9.11.2 was removed due to a security vulnerability.
https://github.com/deedy5/ddgs/releases/tag/v9.11.3

Steps to Reproduce

run uvx open-webui@latest serve in a clean environment

Logs & Screenshots

$ DATA_DIR=~/.open-webui uvx open-webui@latest serve
× No solution found when resolving tool dependencies:
╰─▶ Because there is no version of ddgs==9.11.2 and open-webui==0.8.10 depends on ddgs==9.11.2, we can conclude that
open-webui==0.8.10 cannot be used.
And because you require open-webui==0.8.10, we can conclude that your requirements are unsatisfiable.

I was able to install by using --override with ddgs==9.11.3. Seems to work without any issue.

For anyone who doesnt want to wait for the fix to be reflected in the pip requirements, I solved it on my end by doing:

  • pip install ddgs==9.11.3

Then going to (change this if your packages are somewhere else):

  • %localappdata%/Programs/Python/Python312/Lib/site-packages

Then renaming

  • ddgs-9.11.3.dist-info to ddgs-9.11.2.dist-info,

Then I opened the folder and opened METADATA (notepad is fine, its just text) and changed

  • Version: 9.11.3 to Version: 9.11.2.

Then I just ran

  • pip install -U open-webui==0.8.10 ddgs==9.11.2.

If I didn't include ddgs in the install, it would try to install a lower ddgs and just ignore open-webui.

After that, I could just run

  • pip uninstall ddgs and pip install ddgs==9.11.3

and everything was back to normal, now with the new Open-WebUI

You could of course just leave ddgs as a fake version 9.11.2, considering it really is 3, not 2, you just changed the version number, so you dont have to worry about the vulnerability issues of 9.11.2. This is all of course just for the really impatient ones. I'm betting this will be fixed by the time the day is over tbh

and if I am running a uv install? (pip) on linux? any fix? I can not even find the ddgs-9.11.3.dist-info folder there is a ddgs-9.10.0.dist-info in some uv cache though.

I am using Google Search (not ddgs) at all and on Sequoia 15.7.4 receive the same error when I try to start 0.8.9 and 0.8.10. Fell back to 0.8.8 and it starts without issues.

@prodkt,
sorry, my mistake, try with:

  • uvx --python 3.11 --with ddgs>=9.11.3 open-webui@latest
    or
  • uvx --python 3.11 open-webui@latest and upgrade the ddgs lib:
  • pip install "ddgs>=9.11.3" --upgrade

It appears the fix is not in latest yet but I was able to work around the issue simply by running an older version:

  • DATA_DIR=~/.open-webui uvx --python 3.11 open-webui@v0.8.8 serve

The --with Parameter also did not work for me.
But @MzaxnaV s suggestion works:

uvx --python 3.11 --override /tmp/pin-ddgs open-webui@latest serve
