Describe the problem/error/question

Hello I’m new to N8n and was trying to locally run both N8n and Ollama from my Raspberry Pi 5. I was able to install ollama manually but needed to install docker for N8n to run. From there i was able to get the credentials to load using port 5678 (port 11434 wasn’t working) but now it wont load any of my models and

What is the error message (if any)?

Hey @bwest14 Welcome to the n8n community!

I recommend watching this video to followup steps and validate your setup, let me know if the issue persists.

It’s most likely the endpoint you set in the ollama credential is wrong.

Since they are all in the Raspberry pi. They might be able to connect with each through internal internet. But you still need to check where they are open to each other.

Ask the AI to give you some CLI command to test in the Raspberry pi might solve this issue.
