Below are instructions on +configuring Caddy appropriately. Review comment: Nice idea! Merged nginx and Caddy into section 'Reverse Proxies' - https://github.com/apache/couchdb-documentation/pull/318/commits/a7bd43ad8d7a4fe2adb2f0c7586203bdf7562f24 ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
