| === Use the Install script ===
| | I had some problems getting off the ground with Ollama. Some details are in [[Ollama/install]] |
| Visit https://ollama.com/download and use the installer shell script. IOW,
| |
| | |
| <code>curl -fsSL <nowiki>https://ollama.com/install.sh</nowiki> | sh</code>
| |
| | |
| The script describes what it is doing:
| |
| <pre>
| |
| >>> Installing ollama to /usr/local
| |
| >>> Downloading Linux amd64 bundle

| |
| | |
| === Simply running it as a Docker Image ===
| |
| | |
| Although you can download or install it from the repo on GitHub https://github.com/ollama/ollama, you can also run it as a docker image <tt>ollama/ollama</tt><ref>https://hub.docker.com/r/ollama/ollama</ref>
| |
| | |
| However, I ran into multiple issues, and decided to go the straight install route instead.
| |
| | |
| ====First Issue: accommodate NVidia GPU ====
| |
| | |
| Because I have a [[PC_Build_2024#Video_Card_(GPU)|GeForce RTX 4060 NVidia GPU]], I had to install the NVidia Container Toolkit, and configure Docker to use the NVidia driver
| |
| | |
| <pre>
| |
| curl -fsSL https://nvidia.github.io/libnvidia-container/gpgkey \
| |
| | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/nvidia-container-toolkit-keyring.gpg
| |
| curl -s -L https://nvidia.github.io/libnvidia-container/stable/deb/nvidia-container-toolkit.list \
| |
| | sed 's#deb https://#deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/nvidia-container-toolkit-keyring.gpg] https://#g' \
| |
| | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nvidia-container-toolkit.list
| |
| sudo apt-get update
| |
| </pre>
| |
| | |
| ==== Super User Problems ====
| |
| The docs advise to
| |
| | |
| <pre>(sudo) docker run -d --gpus=all -v ollama:/root/.ollama -p 11434:11434 --name ollama ollama/ollama</pre>
| |
| | |
| which clearly runs as root, however my Docker (Desktop) is running as non-root user, so although I previously fetched the image through Docker Desktop, the CLI command couldn't find it and downloaded another copy. And spit out additional errors:
| |
| | |
| <pre>
| |
| Unable to find image 'ollama/ollama:latest' locally

| |
| nvidia-container-cli: initialization error: nvml error: driver/library version mismatch: unknown
| |
| </pre>
| |
| | |
| The important part seems to be '<tt>Auto-detected mode as legacy</tt>' '''and''' the nvml driver/library mismatch error is certainly a problem. (Is it the same problem; or two separate problems?)
| |
| | |
| Running the image from Docker Desktop, with setting options for ports and volumes, and copying the 'run' command spits out:
| |
| | |
| <code>docker run --hostname=3f50cd4183bd --mac-address=02:42:ac:11:00:02 --env=PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin --env=LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/nvidia/lib:/usr/local/nvidia/lib64 --env=NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES=compute,utility --env=NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=all --env=OLLAMA_HOST=0.0.0.0:11434 --volume=ollama:/root/.ollama --network=bridge -p 11434:11434 --restart=no --label='org.opencontainers.image.ref.name=ubuntu' --label='org.opencontainers.image.version=20.04' --runtime=runc -d ollama/ollama:latest</code>

| In the docker-compose file there is supposed to be another container image accessible at port 3000 providing a webUI. This didn't happen.
| |
| | |
| Clearly, the full ollama setup is supposed to be run as 'root'. It is not designed to be run as a regular user who has ''docker'' or ''sudo'' / ''adm'' group membership.
| |
| | |
| == Docs ==
| |
| The [https://github.com/ollama/ollama/blob/main/docs/linux.md docs] tell you how you can customize and update or uninstall the environment.
| |
| | |
| Looking at the logs with <code>journalctl -e -u ollama</code>told me what my new generated public key is, but also that it could not load a compatible GPU
| |
| | |
| === Problems with GPU ===
| |
| The docs tell you to check with
| |
| | |
| <code>nvidia-smi</code>
| |
| Failed to initialize NVML: Driver/library version mismatch
| |
| NVML library version: 550.144
| |
| So, apparently I'm supposed to install the CUDA Toolkit? and the Driver?<ref>https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads?target_os=Linux&target_arch=x86_64&Distribution=Ubuntu&target_version=24.04&target_type=deb_network</ref>
| |
| | |
| But, simply installing the toolkit and rebooting managed to resolve my driver issue. '''Temporarily'''
| |
| | |
| <pre>
| |
| wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu2404/x86_64/cuda-keyring_1.1-1_all.deb
| |
| sudo dpkg -i cuda-keyring_1.1-1_all.deb
| |
| sudo apt-get update
| |
| sudo apt-get install -y cuda-toolkit-12-9
| |
| sudo shutdown -r now
| |
| ollama -v
| |
| nvidia-smi
| |
| journalctl -e -u ollama
| |
| </pre>
| |
| | |
| I say 'temporarily' because things shortly went badly and I spent hours installing, removing, re-installing various NVidia drivers. The Internet is full of problem reports trying to get NVidia drivers working properly on Ubuntu.
| |
| | |
| == Errors installing NVidia driver ==

| |
| | |
| Eventually, after totally purging everything NVidia-related, and starting over, I seem to have a working system that survives reboots. (I saved a transcript of the misery in email under 'NVidia driver F*ckup'.) Supposedly, there is a newer driver available as 'production' but I didn't want to try upgrading.
