I started a webui container and then I started to get this error in OpenWebUI interface.
SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data
according to a post online, I should set ENABLE_WEBSOCKET_SUPPORT=True in my docker compose, but I’m not using reverse proxy. Is ENABLE_WEBSOCKET_SUPPORT=True necessary?
What could a possible solution be for this?
i would start by seeing what the actually API response is. i haven’t used OpenWebUI, but to me this looks like some kind of error response from the server. you could use an API tester like Bruno. also check your Ollama logs to see if it’s getting the request and any other output there.
when I open localhost:3000 in another browser it works perfectly fine. I think the issue is about the browser I used (firefox with a lot extension installed and setting tweaked)
fuckin weird that an extension would inject invalid JSON into an API payload. if you’re gonna make a shady plugin at least test it lol
anyway, if that’s truly the issue i’d be worried about what my extensions were doing, personally.
Even when you’re not using a reverse proxy, you’re still going to be streaming to that socket.
So I woild recomend that flag still and retest, because the only time I personally have seen that error is when the socket was closed to streaming and it fails to get returned data.
thanks will do
Yeah, trying an incognito window without the extensions would be the best place to start then, if you want to continue to use Firefox for it.

In my experience that is almost always the server returning an html error page.
Start with inspecting that actual response the first character is probably
<. The rest of it is likely to be a “not found” or “internal server error” (being the most common) page.Then look at logs…

Hi how do I check the response?

F12 should open the browser developer tools, one panel will be the network requests.

It could be the
acceptsheader then… check if the request includesaccetps: application/json
