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

Docker

Open WebUI Version

v0.7.0 and higher

Ollama Version (if applicable)

No response

Operating System

macOS Sequoia

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

When sending a message with any API, Open WebUI should give a response

Actual Behavior

When using Deepseek official API, I get 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get' error. The request itself gets a 200 success response, but it shows the error in the chat

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Run Open WebUI version 0.7.0 and higher using the official docker image
  2. Add a Deepseek connection
  3. Choose a deepseek model, either deepseek-reasoner or deepseek-chat
  4. Send a message

Logs & Screenshots

Shows error on the chat UI

/chat/completions request got 200 success

Additional Information

I also tried using the latest Bedrock Access Gateway and it gives the same error. No error when using OpenAI API
