Trying to set up an authentication via Authentik in docker. Getting redirect error

Help
1

1. The problem I’m having:

I am trying to add authentication to several services hosted public and local from my home server. Caddy is working fine reverse-proxying everything in the right direction. At least until I try to add the aforementioned authentication service. I am pretty sure it’s an error of thinking on my site and I hope I get a push in the right direction.

2. Error messages and/or full log output:

I get this error when I try to open ntfy.example.de in LibreWolf:

We can’t connect to the server at application. Did you mean to go to www.application.com/o/authorize/?client_id=jCswQofamg8OGL4vSzKPBD6nd9nqcjukXH7IJ1en&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fntfy.example.de%2Foutpost.goauthentik.io%2Fcallback%3FX-authentik-auth-callback%3Dtrue&response_type=code&scope=ak_proxy+openid+profile+email&state=S3O3jT1syXi8sinkNeip5_j2TtydWc93s8tnjsm9pBo?`

Used several examples from caddy.community and this: Caddy | authentik

I don’t recognize that error message, it’s certainly not from Caddy. I don’t think we can help you here. You should probably ask for help from the Authentik community.
