Using Podman

Podman is a daemonless container engine for developing, managing, and running OCI Containers.

Basic Commands

• Run a Container:

  podman run -d --name openwebui -p 3000:8080 -v open-webui:/app/backend/data ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:main
  

• List Running Containers:

  podman ps
  

Networking with Podman

If networking issues arise, use slirp4netns to adjust the pod's network settings to allow the container to access your computer's ports.

Ensure you have slirp4netns installed, remove the previous container if it exists using podman rm, and start a new container with

  podman run -d --network=slirp4netns:allow_host_loopback=true --name openwebui -p 3000:8080 -v open-webui:/app/backend/data ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:main

Refer to the Podman documentation for advanced configurations.
