1. The problem I’m having:
I am trying to use logHappens together with Caddy. But the .htaccess file has some RewriteRules in which I can’t seem to convert to rewrite rules in the Caddyfile.
The .htaccess has the following content:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^$ webroot/ [L]
RewriteRule (.*) webroot/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
And I try to make this into a rewrite * /webroot/{uri} but this fails.
I am just starting with Caddy, so any help is very much appreciated
2. Error messages and/or full log output:

3. Caddy version:
v2.7.6 h1:w0NymbG2m9PcvKWsrXO6EEkY9Ru4FJK8uQbYcev1p3A=
4. How I installed and ran Caddy:
Through the website, followed the installation instructions for Debian, Ubuntu.
a. System environment:
Ubuntu Focal, running Caddy as systemd unit
b. Command:
systemctl start caddy
c. Service/unit/compose file:
# /lib/systemd/system/caddy.service
# caddy.service
#
# For using Caddy with a config file.
#
# Make sure the ExecStart and ExecReload commands are correct
# for your installation.
#
# See https://caddyserver.com/docs/install for instructions.
#
# WARNING: This service does not use the --resume flag, so if you
# use the API to make changes, they will be overwritten by the
# Caddyfile next time the service is restarted. If you intend to
# use Caddy's API to configure it, add the --resume flag to the
# `caddy run` command or use the caddy-api.service file instead.
