I’m currently running Nextcloud_AIO and Home Assistant on the same server. Everything is running smoothly except the LetsEncrypt cert has expired on my Home Assistant. In the past I simply copied the certs from my Nextcloud instance to the Home Assistant instance and kept going. I understand this is not ideal.
I’m looking to setup a reverse proxy on my system but no little-to-nothing about the process. Is it possible to convert my current Nextcloud_AIO instance to one running via reverse proxy?

Thanks,
Robert

Is there any benefit to running Caddy in a Docker container vs directly on the host?

Hi Robert,

It’s a bit late for a response but yes, the benefit is that Caddy (in docker) is totally isoled from the rest of the system and you can also attribuate the memory reservation, the memory usage and the maximum CPU usage for the container. In my opinion, it’s more confortable too to use docker for the configuration (for Caddy or others). Personnaly, I use portainer to manage all my docker’s instance.
I have a little question for you, I know that is not the place to do that but I run Home Assistant in a container and I didn’t success to configure reverse proxy with…
Can you explain me rapidly how you do that ? I think that Home Assistant block the reverse proxy feature but I’m not sure…
Have a good friday!

I’m so sorry. I wish I could. I had my brother setup the Reverse Proxy for me because I was having issues like you mentioned. Somehow he got it working.
