V2 simple root/file_server returns nothing

Help

I went and looked back at my old systemd service and I think have I had this issue before.
The old service set the user/group as www-data, but I had that commented out and I’m remembering it wasn’t working and I couldn’t figure it out, but once I removed that it worked.

I commented out the user/group and followed the errors until it worked then tried various combinations of the changes.

The current changes are:

  • commented out user and group
  • set HOME to the caddy users home
  • set ProtectHome=false (forgot to do that at the start for derpsin.space)
  • commented out CapabilityBoundingSet

I’d like to figure out why the caddy user doesn’t have permissions, but at least it’s working right now.

So now the first three site blocks are working.
derpsin.space isn’t working, but I think it’s because I translated the config incorrectly.

Here is the old site block

derpsin.space {
    root /home/csos95/dockerfiles/mastodon/public
    gzip

    header / {
        Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=31536000;"
    }

    header /emoji Cache-Control "public, max-age=31536000, immutable"
    header /packs Cache-Control "public, max-age=31536000, immutable"
    header /system/accounts/avatars Cache-Control "public, max-age=31536000, immutable"
    header /system/media_attachments/files Cache-Control "public, max-age=31536000, immutable"

    errors {
        * 500.html
    }

    rewrite {
    if {path} is /
    to /proxy{path}
    }

    rewrite {
        if {path} not_has /api/v1/streaming
        to {path} /proxy{path}
    }

    proxy /proxy 127.0.0.1:3000 {
        without /proxy

        transparent
        websocket
    }

    proxy /api/v1/streaming 127.0.0.1:4000 {
        transparent
        websocket
    }
}

Here is the new site block

derpsin.space {
	root * /home/csos95/dockerfiles/mastodon/public
	file_server
	encode gzip

	header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=31536000;"
	header /emoji Cache-Control "public, max-age=31536000, immutable"
	header /packs Cache-Control "public, max-age=31536000, immutable"
	header /system/accounts/avatars Cache-Control "public, max-age=31536000, immutable"
	header /system/media_attachments/files Cache-Control "public, max-age=31536000, immutable"

	handle_errors {
		rewrite * /500.html
		file_server
	}

	@rewrite1 {
		path /
	}
	rewrite @rewrite1 /proxy{path}

	@rewrite2 {
		not path /api/v1/streaming
	}
	rewrite @rewrite2 /proxy{path}

	@websockets {
		header Connection *Upgrade*
		header Upgrade websocket
	}

	reverse_proxy @websockets /proxy localhost:3000
}

EDIT:

Ok I found this thread and was able to fix my mastodon block.

Here’s the current one that works.

derpsin.space {
	@try_masto {
		file
	}

	@websockets {
		header Connection *Upgrade*
		header Upgrade websocket
	}

	root * /home/csos95/dockerfiles/mastodon/public

	handle @try_masto {
		file_server *
	}

	handle /api/v1/streaming* {
		reverse_proxy @websockets localhost:4000
	}

	handle {
		reverse_proxy localhost:3000
	}

	encode gzip

	header {
		Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=31536000;"
	}

	header /emoji* Cache-Control "public, max-age=31536000, immutable"
	header /packs* Cache-Control "public, max-age=31536000, immutable"
	header /system/accounts/avatars* Cache-Control "public, max-age=31536000, immutable"
	header /system/media_attachments/files* Cache-Control "public, max-age=31536000, immutable"

	handle_errors {
		root * /home/csos95/dockerfiles/mastodon/public
		rewrite 500.html
		file_server
	}
}
