1. The problem I’m having:
I have a fresh install of Raspbian Bookworm and Caddy is the first thing I’ve installed on it. I have yet to get caddy to serve anything through a web browser, even a simple respond message. I can curl and get a good response however. I’ve been messing with it for hours and just don’t get where the problem is.
2. Error messages and/or full log output:

From any web browser I get
Hmmm… can’t reach this page
localhost refused to connect.
Try:
- Checking the connection

3. Caddy version:
v2.8.4
4. How I installed and ran Caddy:
sudo apt install -y debian-keyring debian-archive-keyring apt-transport-https curl
curl -1sLf 'https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/caddy/stable/gpg.key' | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/caddy-stable-archive-keyring.gpg
curl -1sLf 'https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/caddy/stable/debian.deb.txt' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/caddy-stable.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install caddy
I am running it as a background service. Not opposed to running as systemd though.
sudo caddy start --config /etc/caddy/Caddyfile
a. System environment:
Distributor ID: Debian
Description: Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)
Release: 12
Codename: bookworm
b. Command:
sudo caddy start --config /etc/caddy/Caddyfile
c. Service/unit/compose file:
