Adding Services

To add a new service behind Traefik, add these labels to your service in docker-compose:

labels:
  - "traefik.http.routers.myapp.rule=Host(`myapp.yourdomain.com`)"
  - "traefik.http.routers.myapp.entrypoints=https"
  - "traefik.http.routers.myapp.tls.certresolver=webssl"
  - "traefik.http.services.myapp.loadbalancer.server.port=80"

Troubleshooting

Check logs: docker-compose logs traefik
Verify DNS resolution: nslookup traefik.yourdomain.com
Ensure ports 80 and 443 are open
Check acme.json permissions: ls -la data/acme.json (should be 600)
