What is the issue?

I've downloaded directly from Ollama website Gemma4:31b. However, Ollama(0.20.2) cannot run it as below

TL;DR

  • The issue might be resolved by checking the compatibility of the downloaded Gemma model with the Ollama version 0.20.2.

Guidance

  • Verify that the Gemma4:31b model is compatible with Ollama version 0.20.2, as the error suggests a potential version mismatch.
  • Check the Ollama documentation or website for specific instructions on running the Gemma model, as there might be specific requirements or configurations needed.
  • If the model is compatible, try to run it with a different version of Ollama to isolate the issue, if possible.

Notes

  • The lack of log output, OS, GPU, and CPU information limits the ability to provide a more specific solution.
  • The issue might be specific to the interaction between Ollama 0.20.2 and the Gemma4:31b model.

Recommendation

  • Apply workaround: Try to find a compatible version of Ollama or a different model that works with version 0.20.2, as the current combination seems to be causing issues.
