Congratulations! おめでとう! Felicidades! 恭喜! ???? ??! Поздравляю!? ??

Your web server is working. Now make it work for you. ??

Caddy is ready to serve your site over HTTPS:

1. Point your domain's A/AAAA DNS records at this machine.
2. Upload your site's files to /var/www/html.
3. Edit your Caddyfile at /etc/caddy/Caddyfile:
   1. Replace :80 with your domain name
   2. Change the site root to /var/www/html
4. Reload the configuration: systemctl reload caddy
5. Visit your site!

If that worked ??

Awesome! You won't have to look at this slanted page anymore.

Remember, Caddy can do a lot more than serve static files. It's also a powerful reverse proxy and application platform. You can use the Caddyfile to enable any other features you need. Or you could use Caddy's API to configure it programmatically.

Everything you need to know is either in the ?? Caddy documentation or the manual for your OS/platform. Have fun!

If that didn't work ??

It's okay, you can fix it! First check the following things:

• Service status: systemctl status caddy
• Logs: journalctl --no-pager -u caddy
• Are your site's files readable by the caddy user and group? ls -la /var/www/html
• Is the caddy home directory writeable? ls -la /var/lib/caddy
• Ensure your domain's A and/or AAAA records point to your machine's public IP address: dig example.com
• Are your ports 80 and 443 externally reachable, and is Caddy able to bind to them? Check your firewalls, port forwarding, and other network configuration.

WAIT! Before trying again, switch to to avoid being accidentally rate limited. Once you get everything else working, it's safe to switch back.

Depending on your DNS provider, it may take a while for the DNS records to propagate. Even when everything is configured properly, automated challenges to obtain TLS certificates usually take several seconds, but may take up to several minutes or hours.
