**"Internal Server Error" when connecting to Qdrant**
- Potential causes include Roo Code's Qdrant client being incompatible with newer Qdrant server versions
- Check your editor's dev tools console logs for the supported Qdrant version, and pin your Docker image to a specific version
(e.g., `qdrant/qdrant:v1.13.6`) rather than using `latest` to fix this version of the issue

This advice is likely to go stale quickly. The linked issue is being fixed in Roo Code by bumping the client and disabling Qdrant's compatibility check, so hard-coding qdrant/qdrant:v1.13.6 here will become incorrect as soon as that release ships. We also do not publish a canonical "supported Qdrant version" in Roo Code release notes today, so the preceding instruction sends readers to information that may not exist. Can we rephrase this as a temporary workaround for affected Roo versions, or drop the exact version guidance?

Fix it with Roomote or mention @roomote and request a fix.

Yeah, suggesting the users dig into the release source code may be a bit much, even if it technically solves their problem in some cases.

But if that's the case, there isn't much for the user to do except trial & error with the dev console.

Added that bit instead in a second edit & commit.

May or may not be relevant if/when RooCodeInc/Roo-Code#11885 is resolved one way or another.
