I 'm trying to setup a caddy reverse proxy within Docker and I am following the guide in this YouTube video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qj45uHP7Jmo but when I the run docker compose up -d command I get this error:

failed to create task for container: failed to create shim task: OCI runtime create failed: runc create failed: unable to start container process: error during container init: error mounting “/home/Joe/container/caddy/Caddyfile” to rootfs at “/etc/caddy/Caddyfile”: create mountpoint for /etc/caddy/Caddyfile mount: cannot create subdirectories in “/var/lib/docker/overlay2/49e15938cd9c418a331b963f6fbbd3bba726b28748113ee8d028f6adf034b525/merged/etc/caddy/Caddyfile”: not a directory: unknown: Are you trying to mount a directory onto a file (or vice-versa)? Check if the specified host path exists and is the expected type

I am a bit perplexed on what I am doing wrong so any advice would be appreciated!

    Thank you everyone for your help!

    I elected to start from scratch and use nginx and have come across another issue that I am hoping someone can shed some light on.

    • I’ve purchased a domain.
    • configured CloudFlare to use as my DNS.
    • set up a CNAME for my two test containers.
    • set up my SSL cert in nginx
    • forwarded the proper ports on my router for my test containers.
    • Configured two hosts. AudioBookShelf and Portainer

    I can get to my Audiobookshelf perfectly from the web but when I try to reach my portainer it just re-directs to my audiobookshelf container.

    When I disable audiobookshelf and attempt access my portainer I now get error code 521 website down. I am not sure what I misconfigured.
