Unable to connect to ollama server

[hawkeye1121]

I have an ollama server that is accessible on localhost:11434. I am able to see the supported models via:
curl -v http://localhost:11434/api/tags

I set this up in VSCode / Continue as follows:

name: My Config
version: 1.0.0
schema: v1
models:
  - name: Ollama Chat (Remote)
    provider: ollama
    model: qwen3-coder-next:latest
    roles:
      - chat
      - edit
      - apply
      - summarize
    apiBase: http://localhost:11434

I then try to chat with the model in VSCode, but immediately get the following error:
request to http://127.0.0.1:11434/api/chat failed, reason: write EPROTO 277760:error:100000f7:SSL routines:OPENSSL_internal:WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER:..\..\third_party\boringssl\src\ssl\tls_record.cc:127:

As I understand it, Ollama is serving http, but Continue seems to be trying to connect via https, despite the explicit 'http' in the config file. What am I doing wrong?

Tried to reproduce this on my machine and it seems to be working fine.

Can you try changing your vscode proxy (http.proxy) settings (or other related proxy settings) which might be interfering?

I needed to set the NO_PROXY environment variable in Windows and restart my PC. Thanks!
