"transport: Error while dialing: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:...: connect: connection refused" when running LocalAI in a directory with spaces in the pathname

[rdctmeconomou]

After enabling debug mode, I got this error when LocalAI tried to load the model because the absolute path to the back end had a space in it. Looking at run.sh, it seems that none of the references to $CURDIR are escaped.
