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 is ready to assist you.
Important
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.
-
If Ollama is on your computer, use this command:
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_API_BASE_URLto the server's URL:docker run -d -p 3000:8080 -e OLLAMA_API_BASE_URL=https://example.com/api -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. Enjoy! 😄
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:
docker run -d --network=host -v open-webui:/app/backend/data -e OLLAMA_API_BASE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:11434/api --name open-webui --restart always ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:mainWe offer various installation alternatives, including non-Docker methods, Docker Compose, Kustomize, and Helm.

In case you want to update your local Docker installation to the latest version, you can do it with Watchtower:
docker run --rm --volume /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock containrrr/watchtower --run-once open-webuiIn the last part of the command, replace open-webui with your container name if it is different.
