Can't access the web UI from LAN

[tavy14t]

The web ui works fine but only from the first device that accessed it.

Any other device from LAN, or even the same computer that is hosting the server, fail with the following error:

You can't turn off authentication because there are existing users. If you want to disable WEBUI_AUTH, make sure your web interface doesn't have any existing users and is a fresh installation.

Is it possible to configure the extension to support adding the environment variable mentioned in the error above?

Hello! Thank you for your feedback. The extension is already configured with the necessary environments to disable authentication and simplify access to Open WebUI. This issue typically arises when there’s an old volume with the same name. If there’s no crucial information saved in your Open WebUI, I recommend opening the Docker Desktop Volumes tab and searching for volumes with the “open-webui-docker-extension” prefix. You should find three volumes. Simply delete them, then open the Open WebUI extension and restart the service. The volumes should be recreated from scratch with proper auth setup.
