When does this happen?

IF ImportError: cannot import name 'global_handler' from 'llama_index.core' when initializing Ollama LLM in llama-index versions 0.10.11 or 0.10.12.

How others solved it

THEN Create a fresh virtual environment and install the latest llama-index (>=0.10.13). If the error persists, manually import 'set_global_handler' from 'llama_index.callbacks.global_handlers' and call it before using the LLM, or install directly from GitHub with 'pip install git+https://github.com/run-llama/llama_index.git'.

import llama_index
from llama_index.callbacks.global_handlers import set_global_handler
set_global_handler(eval_mode='wandb')
# Now Ollama can be initialized normally
