Ollama:Installation & Usage

Installation

Visit the Ollama Download page, select your operating system, and follow the installation instructions. Since I’m using Linux, I only need to copy the command and run it in the terminal to complete the installation.

Usage

After installation, you can run the llama3.2 model locally with the following command:

ollama run llama3.2

For more models, visit the Ollama Library.

Error

Here’s the issue I encountered and how I resolved it:

After running ollama run llama3.2, I received the following error message:
```
127.0.0.1:11434: bind: address already in use  
```
This indicates that the Ollama service is already running. To stop the running service, you can use the following command:
```
systemctl stop ollama.service
```
