Local AI & ComfyUI Error Troubleshooting Reference
Every guide in this reference provides the verbatim terminal stack trace, the verified root cause in standalone Python/ComfyUI/Ollama, copy-paste CLI commands to fix your standalone environment for free, and how Logen 1.4.0 prevents the crash automatically on Windows 10/11 x64 and Linux x64 (macOS is not supported).

2. Interactive PC & Model Fit Calculator
Calculate Exact Dedicated VRAM Headroom on Windows 10/11 & Linux x64
Select your NVIDIA graphics card, diffusion model, operating system, and target resolution to compute deterministic peak VRAM usage before you download weights.
Formula: Dedicated_VRAM (12.0 GB) – [Weights (6.8 GB) + Encoder (1.2 GB) + VAE Buffer (0.9 GB) + OS Reserve (1.5 GB)] = +1.60 GB available headroom.
3. Frequently Asked Questions: Local AI Troubleshooting
Why do standalone ComfyUI and Ollama setups fail after driver or package updates?
Standalone setups rely on manual Python virtual environments, unpinned custom node requirements.txt files that overwrite CUDA PyTorch wheels with CPU wheels, and uncoordinated VRAM allocation between Ollama (port 11434) and ComfyUI (port 8188).
How does Logen 1.4.0 self-heal local AI services on Windows and Linux?
Logen 1.4.0 provisions an isolated Python + CUDA runtime, automatically starts ollama serve if port 11434 is offline, evicts idle LLM weights from VRAM before diffusion sampling, and surfaces one-click recovery buttons for ollama_offline, comfyui_offline, and vram_oom while keeping your prompt text intact.
Can I use these CLI fixes even if I run standalone ComfyUI without Logen?
Yes. Every troubleshooting page lists the exact standalone terminal commands, launch flags (–lowvram, –fp32-vae, –reserve-vram), and directory paths first so you can repair your existing environment immediately.
