+# Caddy Config Fix — July 25, 2026
+
+## Issues Fixed
+
+1. **portal.debtrecoveryexperts.com was serving /var/www/internal/ content** — should serve /var/www/capabilities/ (public claim submission, login, fee calculator, payment)
+2. **internal.debtrecoveryexperts.com had no Caddy config** — requests were falling through to the default handler
+3. **No try_files directive on either domain** — / → index.html wasn't working, and clean URLs (no .html) weren't resolving
+4. **No index.html in /var/www/capabilities/** — claim submission was only accessible via /debt-recovery.html
+
+## Fix Applied
+
+```caddy
+# Added to /etc/caddy/Caddyfile on Core
+
+internal.debtrecoveryexperts.com {
+    root * /var/www/internal
+    try_files {path} {path}.html /index.html
+    file_server
+}
+
+# Modified portal.debtrecoveryexperts.com
+portal.debtrecoveryexperts.com {
+    root * /var/www/capabilities/   # was /var/www/internal/
+    try_files {path} {path}.html /index.html  # was missing
+    file_server
+}
+```
+
+Plus: `ln -sf debt-recovery.html /var/www/capabilities/index.html`
