Check Existing Issues

  • I have searched for any existing and/or related issues.
  • I have searched for any existing and/or related discussions.
  • I am using the latest version of Open WebUI.

Installation Method

Pip Install

Open WebUI Version

0.6.28

Ollama Version (if applicable)

No response

Operating System

Debian 12

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

Works as expected

Actual Behavior

Parasail does not work with OWUI. It connects, but when going to chat no text input is received.

Steps to Reproduce

Get a key from https://www.parasail.io/
Use https://api.parasail.io/v1 for OpenAI external
Input key, configure model (in my case, deepseek v3 0324)
Watch nothing happen when chatting.

Logs & Screenshots

2025-09-11 10:11:40.320 | ERROR | open_webui.routers.openai:generate_chat_completion:929 - Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

Additional Information

If I use LiteLLM it works with OWUI, but this is not what I want to do.
