1. Caddy version (caddy version):
v2.5.1 h1:bAWwslD1jNeCzDa+jDCNwb8M3UJ2tPa8UZFFzPVmGKs=
2. How I run Caddy:
a. System environment:
Linux 5.10.0-8-amd64 Debian 5.10.46-5 x86_64 GNU/Linux
b. Command:
systemctl restart caddy
c. Service/unit/compose file:

d. My complete Caddyfile or JSON config:
waifuism.life {
reverse_proxy :4000
}
treebird.waifuism.life {
root * /usr/local/share/treebird/dist
try_files {path} {path}/
reverse_proxy unix//var/run/fcgiwrap.socket {
transport fastcgi {
root /usr/local/share/treebird/dist
env SCRIPT_FILENAME /usr/local/bin/treebird.cgi
split .cgi
}
}
}
3. The problem I’m having:
I’m trying to set an alternative Frontend in treebird.waifuism.life for my federated social media in waifuism.life, it uses fcgi and the script Treebird was built correctly.
The thing I believe I’m missing is the configuration for Caddy, fcgiwrap was installed and it is working since with this configuration I can see the website 404 pop out in the browser. (see https://treebird.waifuism.life/)
I browsed several threads along with the documentation on caddy and fcgi but I don’t seem to quite understand what I’m missing.
4. Error messages and/or full log output:
I’m not quite sure where to get them logs but I will send them if you find them necessary.
5. What I already tried:
I tried messing with the env variables and reading the documentation for the other two servers that have been able to successfully run Treebird, those being Apache and Nginx, here are those:
Nginx:
server {
server_name treebird.example.com;
location @treebird {
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /usr/local/bin/treebird; # change this to the location of your treebird executable
fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $uri;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/fcgiwrap.socket;
include fastcgi.conf; #Check your nginx installation for fastcgi.conf or fastcgi_param
}
location / {
root /usr/local/share/treebird; #Change this to the location of the static files
try_files $uri @treebird;
}
listen [::]:443 ssl;
listen 443 ssl;
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/treebird.example.com/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/treebird.example.com/privkey.pem;
include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf;
ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem;
}
server {
if ($host = treebird.example.com) {
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
server_name treebird.example.com;
return 404;
}
Apache:
