- mholt 7y agoNope, Caddy issues certs in the background and will retry with exponential backoff for up to 30 days. It reverts to the staging endpoint during retries so it doesn't count against your rate limits. It also has internal throttling to allow multiple challenges to take place at once (in most cases), so it can obtain several certificates per second as CA rate limits allow, being one of the highest-performing ACME clients available, and one of the most robust, too. https://caddyserver.com/docs/automatic-https#errors https://caddyserver.com/docs/automatic-https#errors
- irishsultan 7y agoAlso, yes, it's the one that had this issue (presumably this is what plopz had in mind https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/issues/1680 https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/issues/1680, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14375022 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14375022)
- mholt 7y agoCaddy is not the only one, though. Traefik had the same problem: https://github.com/containous/traefik/issues/791 https://github.com/containous/traefik/issues/791 So to say Caddy is "the one" that had that issue is a mis-characterization.
