Fix Plan

The fix involves updating the OpenClaw configuration to properly handle the connection to the ollama model within the Docker container.

  • Check the OpenClaw configuration file for any incorrect settings.
  • Ensure the ollama model connection string is correctly formatted.
  • Update the Docker container to use the latest version of OpenClaw.

Example configuration update:

# openclaw.yml
model:
  connection_string: "ollama://host:port"
  timeout: 30000

Example Docker update:

# Dockerfile
FROM openclaw:2026.3.23
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y openclaw

Verification

To verify the fix, restart the OpenClaw service and check the TUI interface for proper loading. You can also check the logs for any error messages.

Example verification command:

docker restart openclaw
docker logs openclaw

Extra Tips

  • Ensure the ollama model is properly configured and running.
  • Check the OpenClaw documentation for any specific configuration requirements.
  • Consider increasing the timeout value if the connection is taking too long.
