[Install issue]: Docker container does not start uvicorn

[radovanZRasa]

What happened?

I tried to run chroma as a docker container with command listed in official docs:

docker run -v ./chroma-data:/data -p 8000:8000 chromadb/chroma

but chroma does not start uvicorn and I cannot interact with it.
Here is a log from a container:

==========
persist_path: "/data"

OpenTelemetry is not enabled because it is missing from the config.

I also tried to run other versions of chroma 1.0.20, 1.0.19 and they all have the same issue.
I tried to run Chroma as a Docker container on MacOS 15.6.1 (Sequoia) and on Ubuntu 22.04. So I tried both arm64 and amd64 images.

I tried to connect to it with following client code (Python):

    import chromadb

    chroma_client = chromadb.HttpClient(host='localhost', port=8000)
    data = chroma_client.heartbeat()
    print("ChromaDB is reachable:", data)

Am I running the image in a wrong way?

Versions

Chroma latet, 1.0.20, 1.0.19.
OS: Mac OS 15.6.1 (Sequoia) and Ubuntu 22.04.
Image platforms: arm64 and amd64.

i just tested it with the same script & docker image and was not able to repro. Could you confirm there are no other servers running on the same port that may be clashing with chroma?

same issue.
Version 0.6.3 works fine, but starting from version 1.0.0, I encounter this issue.

OS: Windows 11 with Docker (Ubuntu)
Image platform: amd64

any updates on this issue? As version 0.6.3 supports older openai versions, and i cant downgrade by openai module for this.
I am also facing the same issue on newer chromadb versions.
