Caddy v0.11.4 Release Notes

Release Date: 2019-02-15 // about 5 years ago
  • ๐Ÿš€ This release adds features to specify trusted CA certificates in the proxy middleware, allows disabling log rotation, and fixes numerous bugs with the recent extraction of TLS logic into CertMagic, including self-signed certificates, IP-only certificates, and email address prompts related to creating an ACME CA account. Also added a new third-party plugin directive, extauth.

    ๐Ÿ”ง Most notably, this version supports the ACME TLS-ALPN challenge by default, which replaces the TLS-SNI challenge. Caddy now supports clustering plugins, allowing it to share TLS assets in a fleet configuration and/or behind load balancers using CertMagic's storage implementations. This is a feature that is enterprise-only in competing software distributions, but is free in Caddy!

    ๐Ÿš€ This release in particular fixes a bug related to the storage paths of certificates. If you have any files in ~/.local/share/certmagic that were not there before, consider moving them to ~/.caddy (or whatever your $CADDYPATH is).

    ๐Ÿ”’ v0.11.3 is also built on Go 1.11.5 which includes security fixes.

    โฌ†๏ธ It is recommended that all users upgrade to this version.
