1. The problem I’m having:
While I have my root directory set to be global readable, Caddy is unable to so much as find anything in it, let alone try to open a file, and simply returns an empty 404 response. When file_server is set to browse, it complains that it’s unable to get info about directory entries for any file in the directory.
I suspect this might be something to do with SELinux, but I’m at an absolute loss as to what to do to fix it.
2. Error messages and/or full log output:
