Research direction

Reproduce the failure in the playground by switching between RAG model examples and uploading the attached PDF, then try the reported .txt and .md files. Start with the exception shown in the issue and confirm that uploads to the knowledge base complete successfully for each format.

Description

After using the playground for quite sometime, I shifted from one example to other example of RAG models. Later when I uploaded the same pdf into the knowledge base, its giving an exception. While the same file was working properly till then. Then I tried with different files all formats like ".txt", and ".md" each of these too failed with same exception as provided below.
