I just noticed that caddy upgrade from 2.4.3 to 2.4.5 doesn’t appear to work.

The workaround is to download the binary directly.

@basil that’s because Matt hasn’t reset the build cache on the build yet server (Download Caddy) so it’s still serving builds of v2.4.3. We haven’t automated clearing the build cache yet on new releases, but that’s probably something we should do because we keep forgetting about it.

@matt just a reminder to reset the build cache when you have some time. With multiple Caddy instances, it’s clumsy to upgrade any other way.

Am traveling back from a conference in France, will do so after I’ve arrived. And slept. :sleeping:
