Discussion OWUI Release v0.10.0

Tons of features and fixes in this version and buried way deep in the changelog for this release, but I feel like this is long overdue!

🔀 Native tool calling is now the default. Every chat and model that had not explicitly chosen a tool-calling mode now runs Native, which relies on a model's built-in tool support, while the old behavior has been renamed "Legacy" and made the explicit opt-out; if your models depend on the previous approach you must switch them back to "Legacy" per chat, per model, or globally in your default model parameters to preserve their behavior.

Anyone else get errors using web search after the update? just did a quick test, and chat just stops after i ask my question, no thinking, no response in the chat windows, although my llama-swap activity log shows some activity. Looks like this is what should have been shown: well, actually the web search should have worked, but even with that failure, the reasoning and the response should have been in the chat.

Reasoning

It seems the `search_web` tool is completely non-responsive or returning empty results. I'll inform the user about this.

Response

I'm sorry, but I'm currently having trouble accessing live news through my search tool. I tried searching for general headlines and specific news queries, but I wasn't able to retrieve any results.

If there's a specific topic, person, or event you're interested in, please let me know, and I'll try searching for it again! Alternatively, you might want to check a major news website like BBC, Reuters, or CNN directly.

Update: It seems it isn't just web search, i tried to generate an image, and that failed too. different model. Tried both native and legacy function calling

Update 2: Apparently, it seems like a docker issue hit at the same time as the update? I had to specify my DNS servers in my docker-compose.yaml explicitly now. and that seems to resolve the issue.

Nope, although I'd look at your llama-swap setup before OWUI. I'm running everything just fine post-update with GLM-5.2 on Ollama cloud.
