Give mosquitto's bind-mounted dirs to uid 1883, not root
The broker crash-looped on every deploy: "Unable to load server certificate /mosquitto/certs/mqtt.crt ... Permission denied". The cert-sync script wrote 600 root:root into a 0700 root:root directory, on the assumption that mosquitto runs as root inside its container. It does not — the stock eclipse-mosquitto entrypoint drops privileges to the in-image mosquitto user, confirmed on the server as uid=1883(mosquitto) gid=1883(mosquitto), and the broker's own log says so on every start. Certs dir is now root:1883 0750 with the cert 0644 and the key 0640, and the data dir is 1883:1883 recursively — recursively because mosquitto WRITES dynamic-security.json there, and a root-owned file left by an earlier deploy would still be unwritable after a directory-only chown. Also drops the "unverified Caddy cert path" note: a real issuance confirmed the path, producing CN=mqtt.drb.cusano.net signed by Let's Encrypt. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
