Originally assigned to: @shatfield4 on GitHub.

How are you running AnythingLLM?

AnythingLLM desktop app
on Mac OS Sequoia

What happened?

Changing Workspace LLM Provider setting for ollama after they have been customized does not save properly.

It requires discarding the workspace and starting over to be able to make correction to these settings, this appears to be a bug.

Are there known steps to reproduce?

When attempting to update the configuration of the ollama settings "Workspace LLM Provider" -> Picker list item for "Ollama" -> Gearwheel icon for settings -> Ollama Settings -> Advanced Settings, once you set a host ip and port, and save settings; returning to this dialog a second time to correct/change the host setting will allow you to edit, but will never actually save. When you return to the dialog to check the settings, the originally modified value is still there.

Strange thing, when going to a "new workspace", attempting to configure, has what I was attempting to set the configuration to and save, already in place. So its almost like the original workspace's config was saving, but never displaying the update? This new workspace I created has a different workspace name, so there is no overlap there...

But then trying to add a port to it is not saving... so yeah this is all kinda broken

First, you are two versions behind and this bug may have already been solved. Second, I can update my Ollama path to whatever URL and port I like and when i click save - it persists when I open the modal.

I open the modal for it on workspace settings - shows whatever is in there currently

I update to port 3333 click save. Go elsewhere in the app, reopen and my change is still there

I am not running ollama on those ports so of course nothing shows for models, but the issue here is you say changes to that config are not applying and that is not replicable atm

Also it is worth noting that you can set a provider + model per workspace but you cannot set a different connection for Ollama in every workspace. Which is why you would see it in another. Same connection - you can just specify a different model under that same connection.

That is likely where your confusion is. It is not a bug, it is a current feature request
