3. The problem I’m having:
This is embarrassing I seem to have stuffed up my installation somehow and can’t get past step 2! I unpacked my download, then moved the caddy binary to /usr/bin. Simple! But when I type
caddy version
I get the following error. Sudo made no difference. I am very new to Linux, but what on earth have a I done wrong?
4. Error messages and/or full log output:
**2020/01/24 13:49:56 args:2 - Error during parsing: Unknown directive 'version'**
5. What I already tried:
Sudo. Reinstalled the binary.

Hope somebody can whack me into the right direction. Thanks and sorry for such a major fail.
