🐛 Describe the bug

Steps to reproduce:

  1. pip install vllm
  2. vllm serve openai/gpt-oss-20b --port=8003 --host 0.0.0.0 --served-model-name gpt-oss --max-model-len 32768 --enforce-eager
  3. on a different shell send the attached request: failing_req.txt
  4. see loop in response bad_response.txt

Before submitting a new issue...

  • Make sure you already searched for relevant issues, and asked the chatbot living at the bottom right corner of the documentation page, which can answer lots of frequently asked questions.

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue is likely related to the configuration or compatibility of the vLLM model with the PyTorch and CUDA versions, and a potential workaround could be to adjust the model serving parameters or update the dependencies.

Guidance

  • Verify the compatibility of the vLLM model with the PyTorch version (2.11.0) and CUDA version (13.0) to ensure they are supported.
  • Check the model serving parameters, such as --max-model-len, to see if adjusting them resolves the issue.
  • Consider updating the dependencies, including PyTorch and CUDA, to the latest versions to ensure compatibility and potential bug fixes.
  • Review the request and response files (failing_req.txt and bad_response.txt) to identify any patterns or clues that could help diagnose the issue.

Example

No specific code example can be provided without more context, but reviewing the vllm serve command and its parameters may help identify potential issues.

Notes

The issue may be specific to the vLLM model or the environment configuration, and further investigation is needed to determine the root cause.

Recommendation

Apply a workaround by adjusting the model serving parameters or updating the dependencies, as the issue may be related to compatibility or configuration.
