What is the problem you are having with rclone?
I'm trying to copy a file in a folder served via the rclone webdav server. When doing it by connecting directly to the rclone server everything goes well, but when trying to do that by connecting to the server using a webserver acting as reverse proxy the copy operation loops indefinitely. I'm using Caddy as reverse proxy.
Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.
On server:
rclone v1.69.0
- os/version: debian 12.9
- os/kernel: 6.1.0-30-armmp (armv7l)
- os/type: linux
- os/arch: arm (ARMv7 compatible)
- go/version: go1.23.4
- go/linking: static
- go/tags: none
On client:
rclone 1.69.0
- os/version: fedora 41 (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 6.12.11-200.fc41.x86_64 (x86_64)
- os/type: linux
- os/arch: amd64
- go/version: go1.23.4
- go/linking: dynamic
- go/tags: none
Which cloud storage system are you using?
Webdav server created with the following command:
rclone serve webdav /mnt/datavault --addr :8100 --log-level DEBUG
The command you were trying to run
This is the command copying the file by connecting to the server without the reverse proxy:
rclone copyto bomber-localdav:/file bomber-localdav:/file-copy2
And this is the command copying the file by connecting to the server via the reverse proxy:
rclone copyto bomber-pubdav:/file bomber-pubdav:/file-copy2
Please run 'rclone config redacted' and share the full output. If you get command not found, please make sure to update rclone.
Server config file is empty.
This is the client config file
[Backblaze]
type = b2
account = XXX
key = XXX
[bomber-localdav]
type = webdav
url = http://192.168.1.10:8100
vendor = rclone
[bomber-pubdav]
type = webdav
url = https://dav.bomber.duckdns.org/
vendor = rclone
user = XXX
pass = XXX
A log from the command that you were trying to run with the -vv flag
This is the rclone server log when issuing the operation via the reverse proxy, hence using the bomber-pubdav remote (here you can find the relative Caddy log):
