Caddy init.d script

Help
1

Is there an official init.d script I can use for manual installations of Caddy? tMy system doesn’t support systemd, which is what Caddy provides.

Hi @marwan,

I don’t believe there’s any official init.d script.

If you can help put one together, maybe we could make it a wiki post for future readers?

Not too familiar with it myself, but if it works for you, please do throw it in a new wiki post!

That looks like an old v1 init script, just FYI.
