Piped tries to call /usr/share/nginx/html/.git/config even when I chose Caddy (may be user error)

Official Instance

• [] The bug is reproducable on the official hosted instance or is API related.

Describe the bug

I chose Caddy as my reverse proxy but when I ran it through docker compose, I couldn't access the website for starters, it always gave errors on my browser but it also tried to call an NGINX file. piped-frontend | 2022/08/16 02:45:41 [error] 8#8: *1 open() "/usr/share/nginx/html/.git/config" failed (2: No such file or directory), client: *whereTheIpIs*, server: localhost, request: "GET /.git/config HTTP/1.1", host: "piped.domain.com" Note: I have replaced the IP that was showing with "whereTheIpIs*" and my domain to "domain.com".

To Reproduce

1. Follow this guide for installation with Caddy https://piped-docs.kavin.rocks/docs/self-hosting/

2. Run docker compose up

3. Try to connect to that instance Note: it took a while for that error to show up

Expected behavior

I should be able to access Piped and see all the videos / no errors.

Additional context

I created this on a cloud server (separate from another one I have). I tried on the one I already had but it never worked so I thought making a new one would work, but it didn't.

This shouldn't be a problem, what errors are you facing in the browser?

This shouldn't be a problem, what errors are you facing in the browser? I went to my server and started it via docker compose to get the error, but then for some reason it worked. I have absolutely no idea why. I changed nothing but it just decided to work for me. Hopefully it stays that way when I reinstall it on a new server!

It's strange since I stopped and started Piped with docker a couple of times but it never worked then.

I'm very sorry for wasting your time!

This isn't related with the original issue (or at least I don't think) but when I change preferences no videos show anymore. Feel free to not help with this issue, after all it doesn't look related to the original issue.

Update: The issue may be whenever you change any preference setting, but I've seen that changing my country to something other than the United States will not show videos.
