Novice trying to reverse proxy with caddy for Jellyfin - problems

If you installed Caddy with apt, then you’ll already have a Caddy instance running via a systemd service, using port 80.

You can find the config file for that service at /etc/caddy/Caddyfile and the service file at /lib/systemd/system/caddy.service.

I would recommend running Caddy using the service instead of the reverse-proxy command. It’s very simple. You’ll just need to replace the contents of /etc/caddy/Caddyfile with something like this:

domain.com {
	reverse_proxy 127.0.0.1:8096
}

Then you’ll need to reload the Caddy instance with the new config by running the following:

sudo systemctl reload caddy

And you should be good to go. You can check the logs with:

journalctl --no-pager -u caddy | less
