Confirmation
- I have read and followed all instructions in
README.md
. - I am using the latest version of both Open WebUI and Ollama.
- I have included the browser console logs.
- I have included the Docker container logs.
- I have provided every relevant configuration, setting, and environment variable used in my setup.
- I have clearly listed every relevant configuration, custom setting, environment variable, and command-line option that influences my setup (such as Docker Compose overrides, .env values, browser settings, authentication configurations, etc).
- I have documented step-by-step reproduction instructions that are precise, sequential, and leave nothing to interpretation. My steps:
- Start with the initial platform/version/OS and dependencies used,
- Specify exact install/launch/configure commands,
- List URLs visited, user input (incl. example values/emails/passwords if needed),
- Describe all options and toggles enabled or changed,
- Include any files or environmental changes,
- Identify the expected and actual result at each stage,
- Ensure any reasonably skilled user can follow and hit the same issue.
Expected Behavior
Our "private" model doesn't allow file uploads.
When I try to upload a file, it should not allow me.
When I drag a file into the browser window, it should refuse to upload.
Actual Behavior
When I drag a file into the browser, it uploads the file into the prompt, ignoring file upload.
Steps to Reproduce
The model we use with uploads disabled, when a user hovers over it, we see that it cannot be clicked - great.

When the same user finds a file, and drags and drops it, they can upload it successfully.
