<![CDATA[Installing Cloudron behind a reverse proxy]]>Hey folks, is it possible to run cloudron behind a reverse proxt at all? Right now I use Caddy to redirect several subdomain.mydomain services to local containers, can I have it passthrough to Cloudron somehow? Has anyone else done this? I just ran the installer and get this error:3398c778-d7d9-4e8c-ba14-e1d68fa1c475-image.png

with the following in my caddyfile:
http://ian.gay https://ian.gay {
reverse_proxy https://191.168.1.203
}

No, they're on the Cloudron host.

http {
server {
    listen 80;
    server_name sonarr.ian.gay;

    location /sonarr {
       proxy_pass http://192.168.1.201:8989;
    }
}
}

This seems to work just fine (and I will be backing the configs up like you said). Can I safely use Certbot with these to enable HTTPS (understanding I may need to set it up again if it gets wiped). From what I see online it's just certbot --nginx and then specifying the domain.

This doesn't happen often, so maybe you can just add new configs under /etc/nginx/applications but be sure to keep a copy of those extra configs, so you can put them back in case Cloudron over wrote it. Note that Cloudron will only overwrite a Cloudron update that updates the internal nginx configuration templates (so it doesn't happen all that often but happens every 2-3 releases or so).

If I remove the Caddy proxy and just forward 80/443 to Cloudron to get it setup, can I just migrate the rules over to /etc/nginx/nginx.conf? I feel like that would be easier over the long run

pi@raspberrypi:/etc/caddy $ curl -k -H 'Host: ian.gay' https://191.168.1.203
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 191.168.1.203 port 443: Connection timed out

Going to did around in that other thread a bit, if it's easier to just use NGINX on cloudron I'll swap the rules over

See also this thread - https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/4463/cloudron-and-apps-behind-a-proxy/ . Do you see any errors in the caddy logs?

You can test quickly if it is some networking issue or configuration error. From the server where caddy is installed:

curl -k -H 'Host: ian.gay' https://191.168.1.203

If the above works, it is some configuration issue.

Previously, I was running Cloudron in a VPS so I setup a raspberry pi at home to run caddy and act as a reverse proxy for the Synology services (Sonarr, Radarr, etc). Now I'm trying to figure out how to get them to coexist where Cloudron can operate normally but I can keep the docker containers on the NAS and proxied to a subdomain. For example, sonarr.ian.gay is proxied to a Sonarr container on the NAS, but I want to make sure blog.ian.gay still proxies to the Wordpress installation on Cloudron.

Can you explain that a bit, so we can better find a solution?

I'm willing to transfer it over to Cloudron's NGINX for sure, will it persist across updates? According to what I can see from the forums caddy is transparent by default (it passes all headers) but it also tries to auto-provision SSL certs for everything so that may require a lot of work and it'll just be easier to use the Cloudron box.

Cloudron already has a built-in reverse proxy (nginx) which also is the TLS/SSL termination endpoint, maybe you can explain your use-case for caddy here?

Generally if this is a SSL transparent proxy (not sure about caddy) it should be possible if everything is correctly pipe through, but I haven't tried that myself, especially not with caddy.
