|
||
|
||
## How to Install 🚀
|
||
|
||
> [!NOTE]
|
||
> Please note that for certain Docker environments, additional configurations might be needed. If you encounter any connection issues, our detailed guide on [Open WebUI Documentation](https://docs.openwebui.com/) is ready to assist you.
|
||
|
||
### Quick Start with Docker 🐳
|
||
|
||
> [!WARNING]
|
||
> When using Docker to install Open WebUI, make sure to include the `-v open-webui:/app/backend/data` in your Docker command. This step is crucial as it ensures your database is properly mounted and prevents any loss of data.
|
||
|
||
> [!TIP]
|
||
> If you wish to utilize Open WebUI with Ollama included or CUDA acceleration, we recommend utilizing our official images tagged with either `:cuda` or `:ollama`. To enable CUDA, you must install the [Nvidia CUDA container toolkit](https://docs.nvidia.com/dgx/nvidia-container-runtime-upgrade/) on your Linux/WSL system.
|
||
|
||
**If Ollama is on your computer**, use this command:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
docker run -d -p 3000:8080 --add-host=host.docker.internal:host-gateway -v open-webui:/app/backend/data --name open-webui --restart always ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:main
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**If Ollama is on a Different Server**, use this command:
|
||
|
||
To connect to Ollama on another server, change the `OLLAMA_BASE_URL` to the server's URL:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
docker run -d -p 3000:8080 -e OLLAMA_BASE_URL=https://example.com -v open-webui:/app/backend/data --name open-webui --restart always ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:main
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
After installation, you can access Open WebUI at [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000). Enjoy! 😄
|
||
|
||
#### Open WebUI: Server Connection Error
|
||
|
||
If you're experiencing connection issues, it’s often due to the WebUI docker container not being able to reach the Ollama server at 127.0.0.1:11434 (host.docker.internal:11434) inside the container . Use the `--network=host` flag in your docker command to resolve this. Note that the port changes from 3000 to 8080, resulting in the link: `http://localhost:8080`.
|
||
|
||
**Example Docker Command**:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
docker run -d --network=host -v open-webui:/app/backend/data -e OLLAMA_BASE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:11434 --name open-webui --restart always ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:main
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Other Installation Methods
|
||
|
||
We offer various installation alternatives, including non-Docker methods, Docker Compose, Kustomize, and Helm. Visit our [Open WebUI Documentation](https://docs.openwebui.com/getting-started/) or join our [Discord community](https://discord.gg/5rJgQTnV4s) for comprehensive guidance.
|
||

|
||
|
||
### Keeping Your Docker Installation Up-to-Date
|
||
|
||
In case you want to update your local Docker installation to the latest version, you can do it with [Watchtower](https://containrrr.dev/watchtower/):
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
docker run --rm --volume /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock containrrr/watchtower --run-once open-webui
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
In the last part of the command, replace `open-webui` with your container name if it is different.
|
||
|
||
