1. Caddy version (caddy version):
2.4.5
2. How I run Caddy:
I had caddy running perfectly on a raspberry pi on my local network. I moved the node app that was serving up my website to my mac mini, because the Pi was struggling. I want to run caddy on the mac (mac-mini.local / 192.168.5.61).
a. System environment:
MacOS Monterey
b. Command:
I have tried both caddy start and brew services start caddy. Both give me errors. I’ve resorted to using brew services restart caddy
I have also tried on the mac, a simple caddy reverse-proxy --from foundry.azthir-terra.com --to localhost:30000
c. Service/unit/compose file:
not sure I have anything relevant here... But not really sure I don’t, either.
d. My complete Caddyfile or JSON config:
this is located in /etc/Caddyfile, /etc/caddy/Caddyfile, and /Users/myusername/Library/Application\ Support/Caddy/.
# This replaces the existing content in /etc/caddy/Caddyfile
# A CONFIG SECTION FOR YOUR IP AND HOSTNAME
{
default_sni 192.168.5.61 <-- [Mac's IP address, not the pi, where caddy is running]
}
192.168.5.61 {
# PROXY ALL REQUEST TO PORT 30000
tls internal
reverse_proxy localhost:30000
encode zstd gzip
}
foundry.azthir-terra.com {
# PROXY ALL REQUEST TO PORT 30000
reverse_proxy localhost:30000
encode zstd gzip
}
# Refer to the Caddy docs for more information:
# https://caddyserver.com/docs/caddyfile
# This replaces the existing content in /etc/caddy/Caddyfile
# A CONFIG SECTION FOR YOUR IP AND HOSTNAME
3. The problem I’m having:
neither ports 80 nor 443 are open. I do a port scan of the domain, foundry.azthir-terra.com, and port 30000 (the app) is open, but 80 and 443 remain resolutely closed. I am not sure what I’m doing wrong.
4. Error messages and/or full log output:
When running brew services start caddy:
Try re-running the command as root for richer errors.
Error: Failure while executing; `/bin/launchctl bootstrap gui/501 /Users/myusername/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.caddy.plist` exited with 5.
when running sudo brew services start caddy:
Warning: Taking root:admin ownership of some caddy paths:

/opt/homebrew/opt/caddy/bin
This will require manual removal of these paths using `sudo rm` on
brew upgrade/reinstall/uninstall.
Warning: caddy must be run as non-root to start at user login!
==> Successfully started `caddy` (label: homebrew.mxcl.caddy)
when trying sudo caddy stop:
2022/01/11 17:20:37.154 WARN failed using API to stop instance {"error": "performing request: Post \"http://localhost:2019/stop\": dial tcp [::1]:2019: connect: connection refused"}

when trying curl https://localhost:2019/stop
curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 2019 after 2 ms: Connection refused
After I run caddy reverse-proxy --from foundry.azthir-terra.com --to localhost:30000, I get the following output:
2022/01/11 17:49:23.444 WARN admin admin endpoint disabled

Ports 80 and 443 are now open, but I"m still not able to connect to the service running on port 30000.
Finally: when I use caddy run and I try to hit foundry.azthir-terra.com my cellular network, I get the following log:
2022/01/11 18:36:26.549 ERROR http.log.error dial tcp: lookup locahost on 192.168.4.1:53: no such host {"request": {"remote_addr": "172.58.189.161:26476", "proto": "HTTP/2.0", "method": "GET", "host": "foundry.azthir-terra.com", "uri": "/", "headers": {"Cookie": ["session=796be94fbf715ee05b757a8d"], "Accept": ["text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8"], "User-Agent": ["Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 15_2 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/15.2 Mobile/15E148 Safari/604.1"], "Accept-Language": ["en-US,en;q=0.9"], "Accept-Encoding": ["gzip, deflate, br"]}, "tls": {"resumed": false, "version": 772, "cipher_suite": 4865, "proto": "h2", "proto_mutual": true, "server_name": "foundry.azthir-terra.com"}}, "duration": 0.077580458, "status": 502, "err_id": "hmjakk0vw", "err_trace": "reverseproxy.statusError (reverseproxy.go:886)"}
5. What I already tried:
I have installed it on the mac using brew install caddy. Then I created the above Caddyfile in /etc/Caddyfile and elsewhere just to be safe. Then I ran brew services start caddy and got the first error above. I tried starting it as sudo, and got the second error above. Then I couldn’t stop it and got the third error above. and the other errors as mentioned.
I am genuinely at a loss here. I’m just not sure what I’m doing wrong. I suspect it’s something with the Caddyfile, but don’t know why it worked on the pi, but won’t on the mac, and doesn’t work now.
