Notes from UPDATING

These upgrade notes are taken from /usr/ports/UPDATING

2023-10-11

Affects: users of www/caddy

Author: adamw@FreeBSD.org

Reason: 
  The default admin endpoint has changed from localhost:2019 to
  /var/run/caddy/caddy.sock. Using a Unix socket is more secure,
  allowing it to be secured by filesystem permissions rather than
  requiring a firewall.

  If you only control caddy from the rc(8) script (service caddy ...),
  you don't need to do anything. If you access the API yourself, you
  will want to update your scripts to use the new socket.

  To use the old endpoint, add the following to /etc/rc.conf:

    caddy_admin="localhost:2019"

2021-03-28

Affects: users of www/caddy

Author: adamw@FreeBSD.org

Reason: 
  The default locations for caddy runtime files have changed.

  - Caddy's runtime log is now /var/log/caddy/caddy.log
    (was /var/log/caddy.log)

  - Automatic SSL certs are now stored in /var/db/caddy/data/caddy
    (was /root/.local/share/caddy)

  - Configuration autosaves are now stored in /var/db/caddy/config/caddy
    (was /root/.config/caddy)

  You can change these defaults. See /usr/local/etc/rc.d/caddy for the
  list of settings.
