If I was Marvin the Paranoid Android from Douglas Adams 'The Hitch-hikers guide to the galaxy" My morning would have gone something like "Funny, how just when you think life can't possibly get any worse it suddenly does"
i have spent the past hour trying to work out why my new crew isn't working against my ollama llama 3 when it was working earlier.
Typically i jump straight in and look at all the possible issues, Libraries, bad code, numerous reads of woefully inadequate blog posts, and then i had an epiphany and checked the first thing i should have checked. ....
YES, THE SERVICE WASN'T RUNNING!!!
I had stopped ollama earlier to delete a model and didn't restart it.
Moral of the story. sometimes its the little things that get you, not the code.
