I did the whole xcaddy routine with the plugin and I moved it into /usr/bin and it works, displays my site, but I’m not blocking anything. I’ve edited and edited and restarted and I can’t see the issue. My config matches many similar ones online. I figure someone might spot my blunder in my config, so here it is.

jellyfin.nunya.biz {
    reverse_proxy mydude:8096
    @mygeofilter {
        maxmind_geolocation {
        db_path "/mnt/geoip/GeoLite2-Country_20250502/GeoLite2-Country.mmdb
        allow_countries US
        }
    } 
}

    Xcaddy is a build tool. Caddy plugins are built into Caddy itself for optimization purposes, so xcaddy essentially makes you a custom version of Caddy. It only conflicts with Caddy so much as building a new version would conflict with the old version. You still get a normal “Caddy” executable after running xcaddy, just replace your existing Caddy with the new one created by xcaddy!

      I disabled and removed Ubuntu’s caddy before using xcaddy, then remade caddy.service and wrote up a small script to rebuild and update it when I need. I may automate it down the line.

      Hey mik, thanks for that. Geoblocking with Caddy was on my list, and I can now bump it up to the front.
