1. Caddy version (caddy version):

2.4.6

2. How I run Caddy:

not using Domain name, just IP of server in caddyfile

a. System environment:

Windows Server 2016

b. Command:

caddy.exe

c. Service/unit/compose file:

Paste full file contents here.
Make sure backticks stay on their own lines,

51.X.X.192 {
root * /www/
file_server
}.

3. The problem I’m having:

Trying to access a video file in VLC on the machine via https:// but getting this error;

4. Error messages and/or full log output:
