Comment on Is this mail something I should be concerned about?

You’re likely looking for this docs section for Caddy. The failure is the automated request to populate Caddy’s root CA cert to the host system, but obviously failed as it doesn’t have root permissions. As the docs state, if you intend to use the local HTTPS functionality of Caddy, you can manually run caddy trust
privileged in order to populate the Caddy root CA cert manually. If you intend to disable the local HTTPS functionality (such as if you’re running Caddy behind a http reverse proxy), you can ignore the mail message.

Thanks for clearing my anxieties :) Sometimes I feel an irrational fear that perhaps someone has broken into my server because of my lack of security knowledge, so having that mail come in was very anxiety inducing.
