Greetings,
I currently have a vServer (rented online) running on Ubuntu including Docker.
Portainer is currently hosted via Docker.
Now I want to use Caddy to reverse-proxy to the Portainer web GUI when visiting pt.mydomain.com
Caddyfile etc. is set up and Caddy does not throw any errors.
My Caddyfile:
pt.mydomain.com {
reverse_proxy 123.456.789.012:9443
}
The subdomain pt.mydomain.com is registered at my Domain provider.
Now if I go to , the following portainer error appears:
Client sent an HTTP request to an HTTPS server.
As this is a well known Portainer error message, I assume my Caddyfile works.
But what is the reason I cannot access the Portainweb web GUI / why does this error appear even if I use https?
Please note that the server is offline for 90% of the time as I'm still playing around. I know that having stuff exposed to the internet is super risky.
I'm pretty new to the proxy stuff so any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks folks!
