Context
Previously running Ollama instances (either via systemctl or Docker) were causing the CodeAssist application to fail during startup. The application attempted to launch new Ollama services while old processes were still active, resulting in port conflicts and runtime errors.
Summary of Change
Added automatic shutdown of any existing Ollama services before starting the application.
Added:
systemctl stop ollama
docker stop codeassist-ollama
docker kill codeassist-ollama
These commands were inserted directly above the args = parser.parse_args() line.
This ensures the environment is clean and prevents conflicts when launching CodeAssist.
Tests
Verified behavior with a running ollama system service → service successfully stopped before startup.
Verified behavior with a running codeassist-ollama Docker container → container was stopped/killed correctly.
Application starts cleanly without port conflicts after the fix.
