Thank for the response.
I have previously tried your suggestions from reading similar issues here.

Linux: Use http://<private_ip_of_host>:11434
Inside /etc/systemd/system/ollama.service, added Environment="OLLAMA_HOST=0.0.0.0"

I know the port isnt blocked since Im using open-webui in docker and it connects to ollama on http://127.0.0.1:11434

Please remove the / from the end of the URL. If that doesn't work can you show the output of sending a curl request at the same URL.

Removing the slash didnt work. Here is the result of the curl request:

`$ curl -i http://192.168.111.3:11434

Ollama is running(base)`

Did you pressed the blue save button after removing the / from the URL?
