c. Service/unit/compose file:

paste full file contents here

d. My complete Caddyfile or JSON config:

:5601 {
basicauth / admin xxxxxxxxx
bind {$ADDRESS}
proxy / kibana:5601 {
transparent
}

redir 301 {
if {scheme} is http
/ https://{host}{uri}

}

errors stderr


 tls /etc/pki/tls/certs/cert.crt /etc/pki/tls/private/cert.key

}

paste config here, replacing this text
DO NOT REDACT anything except credentials

3. The problem I’m having:

My site is not redirecting http request to https request. I have to explicitly add https to my url to get my site run.
I would like to redirect all my http traffic to https

4. Error messages and/or full log output:

5. What I already tried:

Hi @admin_labs, welcome to the Caddy community.

First up, I must make the strong recommendation that you update to the latest version, v1.0.4. There are a number of bug fixes and security updates from over two years of development between October 2017 (your version) and November 2019 (latest stable v1).

Secondly, I tested your setup and it issues redirects just fine. That said, the behaviour might be less than ideal, because the redirect issued includes the port you accessed it on. Since you can’t multiplex HTTP and HTTPS on the same port, this won’t work.

~/Projects/test
➜ caddy -version
v1.0.4

~/Projects/test
➜ cat Caddyfile
:5601 {
  redir 301 {
    if {scheme} is http
    / https://{host}{uri}
  }
}

~/Projects/test
➜ curl -I localhost:5601
HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
Location: https://localhost:5601/
Server: Caddy

Instead of the {host} placeholder (which includes the port), you probably want to use {hostonly} (and possibly provide your actual HTTPS port if it’s nonstandard like your HTTP port is).

FYI v1.0.5 is technically tagged. (Just not a big release party because macOS Catalina broke my build script.)

Truth! Two days ago, heh.

Yeah I know. Gotta find some time, since my release script was broken.

Meant to tag it weeks ago tbh, not sure what happened to it. Maybe it never got pushed and then a new OS wiped out the tag. Sigh.
